Preston, United Kingdom Octopus Energy Group Full time

Octopus Energy is a tech-led energy business, bringing fairer, greener energy to everyone, and leading the transition to a future powered by renewable sources rather than dirty power. Our tech platform Kraken, and the power of the smart meter, lead the way to a renewable energy future by taking the peak-time strain off the National Grid and enabling a unique consumer-led opportunity to transition to a flexible smart grid. Or in other words, our tech works with smart meters to offer customers cheaper, greener power, when the wind blows and the sun shines, right now.

To be considered for an interview, please make sure your application is full in line with the job specs as found below.
Our smart meter programme is the hardware backbone of that innovation. We're building a field force of engineers and support staff to install smart meters alongside other renewable tech such as EV charge points, air source heat pumps and solar panels. We pride ourselves on delivering on the doorstep, the same outrageous customer service that has seen Octopus Energy achieve 5-star Trust Pilot ratings (with over 25,000 reviews) and the only energy company to be recommended by Which? six years in a row.

We’re looking for team players who are up for a challenge; who want to work in a start-up environment and who get what a great customer experience is.
Taking full responsibility for all issues that you come across, you’ll be delivering end to end customer service. Gone are the days of customers getting stuck in a never ending loop of being transferred between departments.
