About Octopus Electroverse

We’re making electric vehicle charging as smart and as simple as possible, by building the giant, virtual charging platform of the future.

In just four years, Octopus Electroverse has grown to become one of the largest eMobility players globally, with over 900,000 connected electric vehicle chargers and a customer ecosystem spanning web, iOS, Android, CarPlay, Android Auto & Automotive OS, and more.

But it’s just the start: we’re busy expanding internationally, working with more automotive and tech partners, building exciting new features at scale, and creating the integrated charging experiences of the future - all in the name of making public EV charging super simple for customers.

Electroverse is a multifunctional team made up of product, development, commercial, operations, marketing, partnerships and more - all focused together on making Octopus the go-to name in EV charging.

We are seeking a passionate data professional to drive the electrification of transport by transforming complex information into strategic assets. You will work with a rich variety of datasets, including charge point telemetry, user behaviour, marketing campaigns, sales figures, and operational metrics. Your mission will be to uncover actionable insights that enhance efficiency and guide decision-making across the entire business.

This role offers end-to-end ownership of the data pipeline. As a key member of a small, high-growth team, you will do more than just manage data; you will be instrumental in building our data function. This includes establishing best practices, creating automated pipelines, and shaping the foundational framework for how we leverage data to succeed.

We would prefer someone who can work in our London office 1/2 times a week and you will also need to have full working rights for the UK as we are unable to sponsor.

If this sounds like you then we'd love to hear from you.

Are you ready for a career with us? We want to ensure you have all the tools and environment you need to unleash your potential. Need any specific accommodations? Whether you require specific accommodations or have a unique preference, let us know, and we'll do what we can to customise your interview process for comfort and maximum magic!

Studies have shown that some groups of people, like women, are less likely to apply to a role unless they meet 100% of the job requirements. Whoever you are, if you like one of our jobs, we encourage you to apply as you might just be the candidate we hire. Across Octopus, we're looking for genuinely decent people who are honest and empathetic. Our people are our strongest asset and the unique skills and perspectives people bring to the team are the driving force of our success. As an equal opportunity employer, we do not discriminate on the basis of any protected attribute. Our commitment is to provide equal opportunities, an inclusive work environment, and fairness for everyone.
