We are both an electricity retailer and a tech platform and we think there is no better way to address our greatest challenge, climate change, than with the combination of those two.

Through our proprietary tech platform, Kraken, we are changing the way people interact with their energy company - by making it approachable, low cost, easy-to-understand, and most importantly, 100% renewable.  We’ve distinguished ourselves by being named 2020’s Energy Provider of the Year, which highlights our commitment to exceptional customer service. In many markets we are a leading employer on Glassdoor for best places to work.

At Octopus we’re developing a data platform that provides data services to all our retail energy businesses around the world. The platform enables self-service of data analytics to hundreds of data hungry users as well as automation of all our data workflows from simple ETL jobs to ML training and prediction. The data platform team works across the whole customer domain on anything from marketing campaign optimization to helping our traders buy the right amount of energy.

Octopus Energy is growing fast and that means lots of data that needs to be ingested, organized, analyzed and shared with the team. We're looking for an exceptional Head of Data who will cultivate a fantastic data team experience and continuously deliver features that provide value to our customers.  

This is a great opportunity to help solve a diverse range of data and business challenges including market intelligence, financial analysis, sales modeling, and operational efficiency. You’ll be working on analysis to deliver insights and recommendations from the models you build, while shaping the future within a collaborative, community-based environment. As Head of Data, you will oversee a cross functional team and be accountable for the delivery of features; technical quality of code pushed to production; and stewardship of the microservices your team is responsible for. We operate a lean organization with a highly agile development approach, and you'll manage a team of data analysts, engineers, and scientists, ensuring they’re happy, productive & grow in line with their career aspirations.
