Job description
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 loads more people to help us make our vision a reality.
About the role
At Octopus, we’ve led the way in innovating new ways to price energy to give customers more control over their energy costs, stamp out the loyalty penalty seen in much of the industry and engage customers to use energy when it is greenest and cheapest. We’re looking for a smart, passionate pricing analyst to join the pricing function within our data team to help us manage and develop our energy products.
Our team takes a technology and data driven approach to managing our complex pricing portfolio. We apply modern open data and analytics tools like Python, Pandas and Jupyter notebooks to build pricing tools and models. We’re passionate about automating work loads and processes so we can concentrate on the interesting problems. We’re looking for someone who is equally motivated by using technology to solve problems.
This is a fantastic opportunity to work on problems that genuinely move us closer to Net Zero with a company that is passionate about building great technology and products that change the way customers use energy.

- Analyse customer switching behaviour and influences (internal e.g. tariff choice or renewals and external e.g. competitor pricing or house moves)
- Perform competitor and market analysis
- Work with Cost, Procurement, Strategy, Sales teams
- Provide regulatory and policy support on pricing
What you'll need
- We don’t need prior energy supplier experience (we can teach that), although experience working in energy retail is a bonus
- Passionate about working in energy and contributing to the energy transition
- Curious and self driven - when faced with a new problem is capable of seeking out an answer without lots of help and support
- Highly data literate and numerate - can make sense of lots of data and shape it into a coherent story
- Has great attention to detail
- Communicates complex ideas clearly
