Help us make a big green dent in the universe. We're on a mission to drive the global renewable energy revolution, and we need loads more people to help us make our vision a reality.

At Octopus Energy for Business (OEB) we help UK small businesses flourish. Our smart green energy products bring together amazing levels of customer service, fair and transparent pricing, and innovative tariff structures, to turbocharge the SME sector’s transition to net zero and cheaper bills. To us, small businesses are the heartbeat of British society and communities, and we are passionate about supporting them and seeing them succeed.

We are on a rapid growth trajectory, radically disrupting the business energy market for the better, just as we’ve done with household energy. Due to our growth (+100% in the last 12 months), we now have a scale that requires a more accomplished approach to data across all areas. The role will manage a small team of analysts and be responsible for improving the way OEB accesses, stores, analyses, displays and uses data.

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

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.
