Data Analyst: Heat Pump Sales

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 Services is a tech driven business that 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 and we’ve fallen head-over-heels in love with heat pumps – which provide an ultra-efficient, reliable alternative to replace dirty gas boilers that contribute 14% of the UK’s CO2 emissions.
We’re on the lookout for a Data Analyst to join our heat pump sales function, working collaboratively with our Sales Leadership Team to provide the killer data insight required to give us an edge.
About you:
You will be motivated, curious and with a get-it-done attitude. You have a passion for creating innovative analysis and the ability to develop findings and recommendations that go beyond the numbers and cut through to the heart of a business challenge.
Ideally, you have worked in a sales operations environment, high growth technology company, or in a comparable fast paced environment that requires business acumen combined with strong and innovative analytical skills.

What you’ll do

• Be a pivotal member of our high-performing sales team, driving and tracking business performance via a rigorous data-driven approach, interpreting KPIs and providing executive recommendations.
• Assist our sales leaders with Sales performance management, steering smart growth and customer acquisition strategies, pipeline analysis, and sales dashboard optimization.
• Drive improvements in our sales process, measure campaign effectiveness  and work cross-functionally to establish reporting and process standards 
• Your outputs will range from robust analytic models, custom performance analysis and the packaging of findings into decision ready insight. 
• You will build tools that can be ‘self-serve’ for team members with frequently-repeated questions.
• You will also set the agenda and lead improvements in how Octopus accesses, stores, analyses, displays, and uses data

What you’ll need

• Bachelor’s Degree, preferably in an analytical discipline such as engineering, science, economics or computer science.
• Strong data analysis and logical reasoning skills 
• Ability to balance priorities and work productively in a fast paced environment 
• Proven self-starter behaviour: Curious, innovative, problem solving and autonomous
• Have an accomplished skillset in Excel, Hubspot (or other Sales CRM) and ability to build and maintain reports and dashboards using BI tools such as Tableau.
• A high level of data literacy and numeracy skills
• The capacity to make sense of lots of data and shape it into a coherent story
• Beneficial (not essential) to also have experience in Low Carbon Technologies such as Heat Pumps and Solar Panels.
