Performance Analyst

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.

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.

We are seeking an enthusiastic and analytical professional to join our asset optimisation team. This role is ideal for a storyteller who loves diving into data, and who wants to help decarbonise the energy system.

The Performance Analyst will work closely with the commercial and technical optimisation teams. This is an opportunity to play a key role in understanding and improving the performance of our trading strategies for flexibility optimisations, everything from large grid-scale BESS down to residential assets. You’ll help build reporting, monitoring tools, and performance metrics that allow us to identify what’s working, what isn’t, and where we should focus next. The insights generated by this work will directly feed into our development priorities. We’re looking for someone analytical, inquisitive, and proactive, with a solid technical foundation and experience working with data in Python.
