Next steps

  • We do things a little differently around here. If successful in our eligibility questions, we'll be in touch to discuss joining us at our in-person recruitment event, Octopalooza, where you can show us what you've got
  • On the day you'll be welcomed by our team. We'll check over your qualifications & ask you to complete a practical trade test to show off your skills. You'll then have a short interview with an Area Manager so we can learn more about you, your experience and your motivation. You'll also have the chance ask any questions and learn more about life as a Smart Meter Engineer with Octopus

Our process usually takes up to 4 weeks, but we'll always do our best to flex around what works for you. Along the way, you'll chat with our recruitment team and your Recruiter will help you throughout different stages. Got any burning questions before then? Drop us a message at and we'd love to help

If this sounds like you then we'd love to hear from you.

Are you ready for a career with us? We want to ensure you have all the tools and environment you need to unleash your potential. Need any specific accommodations? Whether you require specific accommodations or have a unique preference, let us know, and we'll do what we can to customise your interview process for comfort and maximum magic

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.

You'll start on a £36,500 base, with the potential to earn up to £50,000 OTE — including bonus and on-call.**
