Our dynamic Gross Margin team are looking for an Industry Analyst who will be key to our mission of putting a big green dent in the universe.

Our process usually takes up to 4 weeks, but we’ll always do our best to flex around what works for you. Along the way, you’ll chat with our recruitment team and your Recruiter will help you throughout different stages. Got any burning questions before then?

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.

  • Collaborate with Industry & Billing teams to create solutions that close the gap
  • Develop and maintain dashboards, reports, and visualisations that enable operations to quickly understand complex information and make informed decisions

  • What You'll Have

  • Have at least 3 years experience in related roles in the retail energy with industry settlement and/or data knowledge. A specialism in Gas industry knowledge would be a big plus.
  • Strong analytical skills, commercial interest, and the ability to distinguish between what matters and what doesn’t

  • Enjoy developing use cases to solve complex problems iteratively
  • Curious about new and complex areas & excited by a fast-paced, dynamic environment
  • An interest in storytelling with data, with the ability to present complex information in a clear and concise manner.

  • We aren’t necessarily looking for someone who is “10-out-of-10” in all these areas; but rather someone who has good experience in most of them, combined with a flexible and enthusiastic approach.

    Please make sure you answer the short additional questions in the application portal in order to be considered for this role.

    💚 Why else you'll love it here

  • 💰 Wondering what the salary for this role is? Just ask us! On a call with one of our recruiters it's something we always cover as we genuinely want to match your experience with the correct salary.
