Do you love data engineering? Do you also have experience analysing and getting value from financial data? If you’re a “strong yes” to both of those questions then you’ll love this role……Octopus Energy is now one of the largest suppliers of gas and electricity to UK householders, with 6.5 million customers and a multi-billion pound turnover. Our Gross Margin team is responsible for producing key financial outputs to report on the profitability of the business and the different products we offer to customers.
To do this, the Gross Margin pipeline produces a highly granular view of consumption, revenue and costs for every meter and half hour on supply since Octopus started back in 2016. By running this regularly, we can break down the progression of historical and forecasted financial reporting by meter configuration (e.g. smart vs dumb meters), agreement type (e.g. fixed vs variable customers), billing status, cost types (e.g. wholesale and distribution) and consumption type (estimated vs actual).
Due to the growing scale of our customer base, the complexity of the UK electricity and gas markets, and the shift towards tracking consumption at a half-hourly level using smart meter data, we are therefore looking for someone to take on this great opportunity to combine data engineering and financial analytics to deliver business critical need.
