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.

Here at Octopus Energy Eco, we’re responsible for delivering the government mandated eco obligation scheme on behalf of Octopus Energy. We are super passionate about helping customers on low income and benefits improve the insulation in their homes, to help reduce their bills and carbon emissions. We work with an internal and external supply chain insulating customer homes across the UK within the compliance rules of the eco scheme.

We are growing our team and this is an exciting time to join us!

If you’re customer focused and have a love of helping people this could be the role for you! You’ll be making a difference by dealing with customers interested in having their homes insulated via the eco schemes.

You’ll join the Support Services Team looking after customer leads, learning about the different schemes we work on to help you decide which scheme will be best for the customer. You’ll need to have a keen eye for detail and be able to organise data effectively.

This is a hybrid role as you will be required to be based at our NG14 Nottingham office at least once a week and working from home for the remainder of the week.

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.

Work with data sets to analyse next steps

Assess customer leads to determine which scheme would be the most beneficial

Manage customer queries by ensuring they’re provided with the right information, help and advice

Enjoy problem solving and taking on new challenges

Well organised with the ability to work across a number of varied activities covered within the Support Services team

Able to work remotely, manage own workload and time to meet targets.

An understanding of the eco obligation is a nice to have but not essential.
