We’re looking for a Financial Reporting Analyst to drive the efficiency and accuracy of our reporting.  You will be a key member of the FinOps team, connecting the dots between our data sources and providing internal analysis to the broader Finance team as well as external reporting to our funders.

We need someone ambitious that has a great eye for detail, a proven ability to deliver, and the desire to become the owner of this rapidly evolving area in our business. We’re a small but growing team and value those with intellectual integrity and the confidence to operate in ambiguous situations. Ultimately, you will own the creation, management and query handling in relation to reporting for the OEV Finance team. 
 

About us

The electric revolution has arrived - and from 2035 you’ll no longer be able to buy a new petrol or diesel car in the UK. 

We’re building a whole new way for drivers to join the electric charge and not only learn about and shop for their EV online, but experience a 'lease for life' through an industry changing customer experience. This is the chance to join one of the UK’s most exciting start-ups – making it easy for individuals and businesses to go electric by getting their car, charger and energy all in one cracking deal.

Octopus Electric Vehicles launched in 2018 to make it seamless to switch to cleaner, greener driving. Our mission is to drive sustainable change, decarbonise the planet and provide our customers with fair pricing and a fantastic experience. 

We're an Octopus Energy company—an innovative new energy supplier. We are part of the Octopus Energy Group, which seeks to improve the lives of millions of people by transforming the industries we operate in. The Octopus Group incorporates Octopus Energy, Octopus Healthcare, Octopus Investments, Octopus Property, Octopus Ventures and Octopus Labs.

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.

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.
