Job Description
Octopus Energy is on a mission to make the world's energy fairer, cleaner and better. In nine years we've become the UK's largest energy supplier - but we're not like the rest. Out of 650,000+ reviews, 89% of customers rate us 'Excellent'. We invest billions into renewable generation across Europe, you can talk to our CEO on Twitter, and we work with everyone from Arsenal to Idris Elba to Al Gore. And because we genuinely do right by our customers, stuff like this happens a lot.
We want Octopus to be what Ryanair is to budget flights on social: a brand people actually follow, screenshot, and send to their mates. But not for the sake of it. We use social to fight for customers and challenge an energy system that’s historically been stacked against them - ultimately helping make energy cheaper, greener and fairer.
You're a generalist who isn’t afraid to do it all: shoot and edit video, make graphics, write copy, crank out memes, react to the internet in real time, and constantly find new angles to make Octopus relevant, funny, and unmissable. You'll pitch ideas, get the green light, and execute before the moment passes.

This is mainly an office-based role at our London HQ in Oxford Circus - 4 days a week for the first 6 months, then a minimum of 3 days after that.
Social media doesn't follow office hours, and neither do we. If you prefer flexible working over a strict 9-to-5, you'll fit right in.
💚 Why else you'll love it here 💚
• 💰 Wondering what the salary for this role is? Just ask us! On a call with one of our recruiters it's something we always cover as we genuinely want to match your experience with the correct salary. The reason why we don't advertise is because we honestly have a degree of flexibility and would never want salary to be a reason why someone doesn't apply to Octopus - what's more important to us is finding the right octofit!
• 🎉 Octopus Energy Group is a unique culture. An organisation where people learn, decide, and build quicker. Where people work with autonomy, alongside a wide range of amazing co-owners, on projects that break new ground. We want your hard work to be rewarded with perks you actually care about! We were recently named the UK's top company to work for, and we ranked in the top ten in the Sunday Times Best Places to Work 2024. Our Group CEO, Greg has recorded a podcast about our culture and how we empower our people. We’ve also been placed in the top 10 companies for senior leadership
