Job Description:
We’re on a mission to invest in people, ideas, and industries that will change the world. Octopus Energy is the global tech pioneer using our in-house technology platform to unlock a customer-focused and affordable green energy revolution. We’re changing the energy system globally, spearheading the transition to greener, cheaper energy through the installation of in-home technologies. We have phenomenal growth plans, and we need enablers to help deliver our aspirations at speed and scale.
At Octopus Energy Heating, we’re developing a home heating revolution that will significantly reduce reliance on fossil fuels and bring a cleaner, more sustainable world. We are setting up the first of multiple manufacturing premises in Portadown, and if you want to help us bring this technology to the market at scale and speed, then read on.
We are not your normal manufacturing company. We hire the best people and give them the trust and space to do what they do best. You will be the bridge between our research and development team and our manufacturing team, driving us towards the same goals and being the go-to for troubleshooting and improving our efficiency.
Both teams are based 5 minutes from each other, so discussions are easily had and stakeholders are accessible to make decisions. You will need to be self-sufficient and confident in your experience and decision-making.
You could come from various backgrounds to thrive in this role—project management, manufacturing, NPI, or R&D. It’s more about skillset and personality than job title and length of service.
The teams here work collaboratively, designing, building, testing, and shipping what we believe is the best heat pump in the market for the UK’s largest electricity supplier. You will play a vital role in this process.
For example, if R&D has a new component they want to add to the heat pump to improve efficiency, but it increases production takt time and causes a bottleneck in manufacturing, you will utilize your knowledge of engineering change, production efficiency, and manufacturing to troubleshoot and resolve the issue beneficially for both parties.
If that sounds like something you could do and would enjoy being a part of, get in touch! We’re looking for passion, skills, and experience to help shape and define the future of energy and business at a global scale.
Need any specific accommodations? Let us know, and we'll customize your interview process for comfort and maximum effectiveness!
Studies show that some groups of people are less likely to apply unless they meet 100% of the job requirements. If you like one of our jobs, we encourage you to apply as you might just be the candidate we hire. We are looking for genuinely decent people who are honest and empathetic. As an equal opportunity employer, we do not discriminate based on any protected attribute. Our commitment is to provide equal opportunities, an inclusive work environment, and fairness for everyone.
