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.

We’re looking for a Technical Assurance professional to support our Octopus Trusted Partner (OTP) network as part of the Heat Pump team.

The Cosy heat pump from Octopus Energy is our own in-house designed and built system - engineered end-to-end by us to deliver smarter, more efficient, low-carbon heating for homes.

This hybrid role focuses on the mechanical safety, compliance, and quality of Cosy heat pump installations, requiring a solid understanding of ASHP systems and heating integration. You’ll play a key role in ensuring installations carried out by third parties meet expected mechanical and technical standards, supporting complex queries, and helping to resolve escalations effectively.

You’ll act as a trusted technical point of contact between OTPs, technical design engineers, and wider Octopus Energy Services teams, ensuring issues are managed end-to-end and standards are upheld.

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

Are you ready for a career with us? We want to ensure you have all the tools and environment you need to unleash your potential. Need any specific accommodations? Whether you require specific accommodations or have a unique preference, let us know, and we'll do what we can to customise your interview process for comfort and maximum magic!

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.
