Sustainability Analyst

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 brilliant people to help make it happen.

Octopus Energy Group set out in 2016 to build a greener, cheaper and fairer energy system in the UK. Now as the UK’s largest domestic energy supplier, we are at the forefront of driving the green energy revolution, relentlessly delivering better service, lower costs and more innovation.

We are driving full energy-system change, reinventing the way energy is consumed through physical and technological innovation. We are delivering the energy transition, helping reduce households' carbon footprint and bills through three fronts: growing renewable energy generation (mainly through deployment of funds managed by OE Gen); electrifying heating and transport; and enabling a smarter, greener grid through demand flexibility. As an integrated consumer energy business with high brand awareness, customer trust and technology deeply embedded in the consumer energy value chain, Octopus is uniquely positioned to drive the decarbonisation of the consumer energy markets.
