Finance Director

We have an opportunity for an qualified Finance Leader, experienced as an FD and track record in operational high volume businesses to join our Senior Leadership Team at Octopus Energy Services, ready to finance the energy transition at real scale! In this role, you will lead our core finance functions - Financial Management & Accounting, Financial Operations, Financial Risk, and Pricing. You will also support our Strategic Finance team in financial planning. You'll sit on the leadership team and report into our OES CEO, partnering with other senior leaders across our low carbon tech teams, flexibility and manufacturing. Octopus energy is our shareholder and funds significant deployment through OES so you'll need to think like an owner whilst building for growth! It's a high complexity team we're serious about investing into low carbon installations and creating propositions that are new to the market for our customers. You'll balance margin, cash, whilst gaining scaling volume fast and protecting unit economics as we grow is critical. You’ll be responsible for performance, planning and development across each area in finance including leading a team of exceptional people to unlock their full potential. Operationally this isn't just a desk job, think about engineers across the country, supply chains to manage, depots to stock and all of that must flex with demand; you'll need to be comfortable challenging conventional thinking. Octopus Energy Services is spearheading the transition to greener, cheaper energy through the installation of in-home technologies; from smart meters and EV chargers; to low carbon heating, home batteries, solar, and beyond. We deliver smart energy, low carbon solutions for our customers.
