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 many more people to help us make our vision a reality.

Octopus Energy Generation (OEGEN) is a leader in sourcing, investing in, and managing a wide range of utility-scale renewable energy assets.

It is our ambition to change the entire energy lifecycle and make every green electron matter, delivering the best outcomes for customers, investors, the environment and society, accelerating the transition to net zero.

We are seeking a Portfolio Analyst to join the OEGEN Funds Team, reporting to a Portfolio Manager.

You will support the Portfolio Manager across four Funds focused on Energy Transition Assets, Asian based investments and Growth Equity (Venture capital).
