About the company:

We're on a mission to make a big green dent in the universe by building a truly sustainable energy system globally.

That means making power greener, smarter, and more affordable for everyone.

We put customers at the heart of everything we do: with always-fair prices, transparency and outrageous customer service.

We drive system change: with transformative tech to make renewable energy the norm and end global reliance on fossil fuels.

Octopus Energy Group is made up of 10 businesses spanning 6 countries across 3 continents, including: Octopus Energy Retail, Kraken Technologies, Octopus Energy Generation, Kraken Flex, Octopus Electric Vehicles, and the Octopus Centre for Net Zero. More on OEG @ octopusenergy.group

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.

Octopus Energy continues to rapidly grow globally as we expand beyond energy retail and explore the low carbon products that will change the shape of the industry and fast track the globe to a zero-carbon future. We’re looking for a creative digital marketer to help us do this.

This is an exciting and creative role where you’ll own and be accountable for increasing the adoption of products like heat pumps, solar panels, home batteries and EV chargers. This will be your main focus and digital marketing will be your speciality but there’s no barrier to what you can work on.

We’re obsessed with giving customers the best experience and you will be too. You’ll be our digital marketing specialist for our low carbon products and, more importantly, you’ll get close to customers to get a true understanding of what they want/need. You’ll whip up impactful content that will inform and educate and encourage long term engagement. You’ll rapidly experiment and iterate the online sales journey suggesting ways to improve our UX. You’ll know the customer journey from start to finish and continue to shower customers with love and appreciation for actively being part of the move towards a zero-carbon future.

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

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.

What you should know

We rarely use agencies for anything. We’re a fabulous team of in-house designers, UX, copywriters and front-end developers. We do our own media buying. You could say, in fact, that we’re half agency, but we’re your most favourite client ever, the one you secretly yearned to work at

We’re obsessive about our customers. We think about our customers a lot. We answer emails from customers, we join in on social media (and I mean we, as leaders do), we think constantly about creating great experiences that are worth talking about, great stories and always focusing on the purpose, why people should join us

We’re looking for someone who’s worked their way around the marketing mix and can stay on top of the metrics, but actually, what you really know is humans and human behaviour

You’ll work freely with autonomy and accountability, minimising your dependencies on others while intensely collaborating with the creative team sharing your enthusiasm and awesome ideas and getting them live as soon as possible

You’ll need to be a grafter, but a smart grafter. You put effort where it delivers the most value: you’ll wireframe just enough to communicate what you need to a designer or developer and if they’re not available, you’ll find a work around

You have a burning desire to turn your skills to something meaningful. You enjoy shipping things MVP, quickly learning from live feedback and constantly deploying new improvements. You’d rather not just make someone else’s stuff anymore. You want to take the lead in making something the world desperately needs

And finally, being honest and transparent, we find that people from traditional corporate businesses can struggle in this environment of creativity and rapidly changing priorities. We do hire people from these backgrounds - please don’t let that stop you from applying - but successful candidates understand the criticisms of old traditional business models and are eager to try something evidently more impactful. We don’t work to backlogs, we don’t write business cases or annual business plans. We put effectiveness and efficiency above all else and work with a bias to action. We expect accountability without process, and responsibility without functional shoulder pads. We get stuff done by knowing what’s right, and it takes hard to learn that

What you'll do

Run and experiment with ads across all digital channels with the end goal of increasing uptake in our low carbon products - you’ll own growth for online requests and installation bookings

Learn and understand how customers are using our onboarding journey for each of our low carbon products (solar, heat pumps, batteries and chargers) then analyse, test and iterate improvements to new customers and the digital sales journey

Work closely with our smart tariffs team to uncover customer based insights to and use them in your marketing messages

Create strategies to gather leads, automate comms flows and increase installation bookings

Write and design landing pages for ad campaigns, experimenting with different iterations to increase activity to optimise performance

Test retargeting ads, comms and offers to bring people back into the funnel

Help build customer-love products, campaigns, rewards, and other retention improvements

Gain and report on customer insights via surveys and self-serve data analysis

Competitor research and analysis

Manage activity with smaller external partners, affiliates and influencers

Improve our involvement and engagement with online low carbon product communities

Manage ongoing website improvements, SEO and dramatically improve the organic search position for Octopus’ low carbon products.

Why else you'll love it here

An ability to quickly adapt to change. We pride ourselves in going beyond being an agile organisation that is constantly changing to fit the needs of our customers

Understanding of traditional and emerging marketing channels - particularly the fast changing world of digital

Ability to interpret data and draw actionable insights

Experience developing clear and engaging content consistent with customer needs and brand tone

Analytical skills to forecast and quickly identify sharp changes in activity and trends

Experience with planning, creating, and implementing relevant content on customer facing channels

Capacity to coordinate projects from start to finish

An understanding of how to define, track, and generate a profitable CPA

To manage search keyword research and databases

An understanding of SEO ranking factors

Ability to track content usage and content sequencing over time

A deep interest in sustainability, green energy and achieving net zero
