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… one roof at a time. 

Here at Octopus, we’re embarking on an exciting journey with the launch of our solar value proposition. We’re bringing a brand new product to the market and are growing our team across both our locations (Brighton and Birmingham). Our people are the heart of this revolution so exceptional leadership and can-do attitude will be key to our success. 

We’re looking for a Sales Performance Analyst to join our Commercial function. Reporting into the Strategy & Operations Lead, you will produce and deliver all business insights for the Solar acquisition channel covering growth and quality metrics. 

This is a fantastic opportunity to work on problems that genuinely move us closer to Net Zero with a company that is passionate about building great technology and products that change the way customers use energy.

  • Monitor and analyse performance metrics and provide insights to sales leaders to help optimise their sales team resources, increase sales effectiveness, and achieve our ambitious growth targets
  • Work with BI tools, G-suite, and our CRM system, being the go-to person for insights, ad hoc analysis, and performance monitoring for initiatives that underpin our customer experience or growth plan
