Such a pro… it’s like you’ve got 8 arms

As an Octopus Electrician, you could be fitting a whole host of clean home tech in customer homes, including Electric Vehicle chargers, Solar Panels, or Air Source Heat Pumps, all in the name of helping to bring cleaner, greener energy to our customers.

You’ll often be the first person from Octopus that the customer will meet in person, so we’re looking for someone who’s not only got the technical skills but can also deliver an outstanding customer experience.

  • have a full UK driving license with no more than 6 points 
  • have 18th Edition, Part P/ installation qualification and Inspection & Testing qualifications 

 Other qualities we’d love to see include:
