Venue Sales Ambassador

Octopus Energy has exciting opportunities to join our field sales team as an Energy Helper. We're changing the landscape of traditional field sales and marketing and re-inventing customer interactions. We're focused on making energy greener and better, for everyone.
We put our customers first and are looking for amazing people to help us do that!Here at Octopus, we're working hard to reinvent face to face activity by combining better customer data, our innovative tech platform (Kraken Technologies), and targeted marketing in order to create more detailed and engaging conversations with local communities.
Our Energy Helpers help introduce these local communities to Octopus Energy as a preferred potential supplier by comparing service and products with other energy companies. This helps potential customers make an informed choice on whether they'd benefit from switching to us for their energy supply at their homes.
You'll be at the frontline of our brand and as such, you're responsible for showing the best of Octopus Energy and all we have to offer the public!

What you'll do

• Communicate with customers: we try to be available to people through as many different avenues as possible. Not only do we use digital advertising, billboards, TV ads and more, we also have hundreds of friendly energy helpers around the country who speak to customers at events and venues, to spread the word about Octopus - this will be you!


• Your role will be to ensure every conversation you have delivers excellent customer service


• You will value meaningful honest conversations, which allow customers to make informed choices and you will pride yourself on ensuring that every interaction is of the highest quality
