David Hayman

David combines the co-founding of TTC Global with long-standing volunteer service in testing qualifications and leadership of ANZTB. The board supports testers across Australia and New Zealand through accredited training, certification and opportunities to learn from other professionals. That work helps establish shared testing knowledge and supports the skills needed to assess software quality.

David Hayman chairs the Australia and New Zealand Testing Board (ANZTB) and co-founded TTC Global. Based in Auckland, David established The Testing Consultancy, now TTC Global, in 2005, drawing on practical expertise in test practice management, consultancy and strategy across diverse industries, as well as experience creating and managing independent testing consultancies in both the UK and New Zealand.

David has volunteered with software testing certification schemes since 1999 and previously served as ANZTB chair between 2010 and 2014. As the regional member board of the International Software Testing Qualifications Board (ISTQB), ANZTB develops qualifications and learning syllabuses, contributes to international testing standards, accredits training providers, and oversees professional certification throughout Australia and New Zealand. Through community events and shared learning initiatives, ANZTB advances software quality as a respected professional discipline across the region.
