Development Lead

Octopus Energy for Business (OEB) is a rapidly scaling energy supplier with more than 130k business customers. We’ve pioneered PPA-backed supply for mid-market businesses through Electric Match, led the way for SME smart tariffs with Shape Shifters and are the established market leader for enabling EV public charging through energy supply and services. We are committed to helping business customers meet their energy needs through technology, renewables and flexibility. To do this to the fullest extent, we are now expanding our capabilities beyond energy supply and smart tariffs. To help businesses solve for escalating energy bills and long grid connection queues, we will also install and optimise low carbon tech - primarily batteries - at their sites. While there is potential to scale this activity both up and down to larger and smaller customers, projects developed by this role will initially focus on businesses in the mid-market segment (100kW - 1MW).  We will integrate batteries with solar where appropriate, but the anchoring technology is the battery itself - with the potential to create significant bill savings through flexibility.  This role will lead project development for battery projects at business customer sites. This role is London based and requires regular travel to customer project sites.
