Overview

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.

Octopus Energy ECO are currently one of the UK’s leading ECO delivery arms and as such we rely on a close and great working relationship with partner companies. This role is focused on growing those relationships and bringing new relationships and innovative thinking to the team.

You will be responsible for a small team of Partnership Managers who manage the day to day relationships, and have an eye on developing these relationships further. Working to our commercial strategy, you will have targets to deliver contracts in line with our requirements, allowing all contracts to deliver as per their purpose.

From cavity and loft installations under the ECO and GBIS schemes through to complicated innovation measures, your team will be responsible for the delivery of all ECO measures and as such we would want someone for the role that has a thirst for knowledge and the flexibility to learn new things whilst keeping their feet on the ground in this pivotal role.

This role is remote, with occasional travel requirements within the UK (most frequently to our Nottingham hub).
