Job Description

Octopus Energy started with a bold idea: to build Britain’s first truly digital energy supplier. By combining world-class tech with brilliant humans who care deeply about customers and driving the renewable energy transition, we made it happen and in 2025, we became Britain’s largest energy supplier.

We now serve over 12 million customers globally, are present in over 30 countries and manage a £7 billion portfolio of renewable energy assets.

At Octopus, we prioritise generalists over specialists because our growth isn't limited to just one sector. We built Kraken into a £10B SaaS powerhouse, and are scaling ventures across Tech, Flexibility and Smart Heating among others.

We are now looking to take our experience to new countries around the world. We are looking for someone to lead the build out forecasting and asset optimisation analytics in a new market for Octopus in East Asia. The role will cover forecasting price, generation and demand outturns. This will start off with a contained number of pilot projects to prove out the concept, but will expand to a national, multi-province approach. We envisage you spending a couple of months in Octopus HQ to get up to speed before deploying in country. This is a rare opportunity to create, build and lead a new function, targeting one of the largest opportunities in global energy.
