Description
Octopus Energy is a rapidly growing, global energy business. We're looking for a Senior Global Finance manager who has a passion for helping support and grow a high, paced, global disruptor.
The Octopus Energy Group spans everything from Renewable Generation to domestic flexibility, and from domestic heat pumps to public EV charging. In total we are operating dozens of businesses in over 20 countries around the world - and we have a lot further to go.
We're looking for a motivated finance professional to work closely with our Group Corporate Finance Director. You’ll be responsible for delivering key accounting advice and implementation for high importance areas of the Group (e.g. fundraising, M&A, new geographies, new lines of business, internal restructures). Octopus has done 40+ deals in the past 5 years ranging from acquiring small retail businesses to launch Octopus in new markets, to a Joint Venture in Japan, to acquiring 3m customers in taking on Bulb and Shell’s UK retail businesses, and most recently to demerging Kraken Tech.
You'll need experience in local and international accounting standards and fast-paced, rapidly growing, global organisations.
The ideal candidate will be a qualified accountant with hands-on experience delivering accounting workstreams on strategic business initiatives.
At Octopus, we hire great people who can move quickly across a complex business. Being able to thrive in a fast-paced environment is super important for this role. In exchange you will be involved in some of the most important financial decisions and projects that we undertake.
