At Octopus Energy Trading, we’re on a mission to reshape the future of energy. As part of Octopus Energy Group, we’re creating an innovative approach to trading that will accelerate the transition to a Net Zero world. With the growth of renewables and a push toward decarbonising heating and transport, greater flexibility in the grid is essential. We are building cutting-edge technology to optimise everything from domestic EV charging to grid-scale batteries, to meet the global demand for energy flexibility.

As innovators at the forefront of the energy transition, our trading team is addressing the unique challenges and volatility of a renewables-based power sector. This is an exciting opportunity to join a high-impact venture where you’ll play a key role in driving Octopus’ growth within the dynamic energy market.

We’re looking for passionate and unconventional thinkers to join us on this journey, bringing a diversity of experience and ideas to shape a more efficient, flexible, and sustainable energy system.

With an increase in variable and distributed supply, forecasting has never been more important. Octopus has always had a tech-first approach, and our trading and analytics tools are all built in-house. We are looking for a data scientist who’s comfortable building data pipelines bringing together internal and external data to create market leading forecasts using both classical and ML techniques. This will include demand, renewables and transmission system fundamentals forecasts.
