What we do. Electric Car Leasing

Why we do it. Greener. Fairer. Future.

We are looking for a super collaborative Product Manager to join our London team in the development of one of Octopus Group’s most exciting businesses, and help accelerate the British driving public on their energy transition.

We are building a whole new way for drivers to join the electric revolution and not only learn about and shop for their EV online, but experience a ‘lease for life’ through an industry changing customer experience.

The Product team is crucial in defining and bringing to market this vision, while working hand in hand with teams across the company to deliver it in record time.

This role will focus on building out the back office finance and credit tools, to unlock 10x growth and innovative propositions and new markets.

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.
