This role is perfect for someone with strong B2C and B2B experience in search of leading a fast moving area within an enriching role to join us at the heart of the green energy revolution. 

This role is hybrid and can be based in either of our Brighton or London offices.

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.
