At Octopus Energy for Business (OEB), we are an established and rapidly scaling energy supplier with more than 120k business customers. We are reinventing Britain’s business energy market by rejecting brokers, delivering great value and outrageously good customer service to all customer segments and leading the market for business smart products like Shape Shifters and Electric Match.
Operating within Octopus Energy Group, we are committed to helping business customers cut their bills and meet their energy needs through technology, renewables and flexibility. To do this to the fullest extent, we need to take our growth to the next level by building more awareness of our amazing products and service levels within the business market specifically.
OEB’s brand stands for championing British businesses, delivering bill-saving value through innovative energy products and rejecting the status-quo of energy broker domination in the wider market. But we want to get the word out even more effectively than we have done to date. Using compelling story-telling, our amazing customer case studies, new breakthrough media strategies and a creative B2B marketing approach, this role will play an integral role in making that a reality for Octopus in the B2B market.

What you should know
We rarely use agencies for anything. We’re a fabulous team of in-house designers, UX, copywriters and front-end developers. We do our own media buying. You could say, in fact, that we’re half agency, but we’re your most favourite client ever, the one you secretly yearned to work at.
We’re looking for someone who knows digital, but really understands people. You’re comfortable with the numbers, but you think in behaviours. You’ll have the autonomy to get things live quickly, test, learn and improve — working closely with a creative team that moves at pace.
You like shipping, not polishing. You’re motivated by building something meaningful, not just managing it.
And finally, being honest and transparent, we find that people from traditional corporate businesses can struggle in this environment of creativity and rapidly changing priorities. We do hire people from these backgrounds - please don’t let that stop you from applying - but successful candidates understand the criticisms of old traditional business models and are eager to try something evidently more impactful.
