Smart Meter Engineer

We’re looking for smart meter engineers with a proven track record of safety and customer excellence, who are passionate about the mission Octopus is on. 

We’re recruiting across England so you’ll see lots of vacancies in lots of locations. Please only apply to the role and location that is most suitable for you. Please don’t apply to multiple locations. 

What you’ll do
As part of the Octopus Energy Services team, we’ll ensure you have the best of everything you need to deliver the top-class service we’re aiming for. Sharing the same performance goals as you, our office team will support you so we’re always working as one team to give the best possible customer experience. You’ll also have the backing of Octopus Energy’s innovative tech power – so we’ll be able to constantly evolve and shift processes to ensure we’re always delivering our best service. This should help to keep admin to a minimum, allowing you to focus on what you do best. 

You’ll be just as happy talking to the customer and getting to know them as you are doing the installation itself. Day to day you can be fitting meters; showing customers how their meter and in-home display work; how it can help them save energy and answering any questions about the green energy revolution we are leading. 

 

Who you are
We’re looking for smart meter engineers with a proven track record of safety and customer excellence. You’ll be representing our brands in our customers’ homes; in many cases, the first face-to-face contact a customer has with Octopus Energy – so our expectations are high. People skills are important to us, and it would be pretty great if you had a flexible working approach too. Some skills we need from you include: 

  • Valid, in date, MOCoPA – at least 1ph WC 
  • Gas Safe – CCN1 – MET1 or CMA1 – MET1 (or equivalent) 
  • Full UK driving licence with no more than 6 points 

 

Join us in the Octoverse!

The next steps
We do things a little differently around here. If successful in your eligibility questions, we’ll invite you to complete our online blended assessment. This is made up of multiple-choice questions and three short video interview questions. You’ll be scored fairly by a real person and if you stand out to us, we’ll invite you to an in person recruitment event where you can show us what you’ve got.
