Product Manager

Octopus Energy started with a bold idea: to build Britain’s first truly digital energy supplier.

Key Responsibilities

• You’ll shape the vision, strategy, and roadmap for your own product area, making sure it links up beautifully with the wider portfolio and the team’s overarching goals.
• Take the lead on product discovery, teaming up closely with UX and engineering to build quick prototypes, proof of concepts, and lean versions to test out our ideas.
• Take big, complex projects and break them down into smaller, high-value pieces that the engineering team can ship quickly and smoothly.
• Run a clear, forward-looking roadmap that prioritizes the biggest opportunities while proactively keeping an eye on dependencies across different teams.
• Keep your roadmap flexible and driven by fresh insights, regularly chatting with peers and product leaders to get feedback on new opportunities, risks, and trade-offs.
• Be the ultimate champion and voice for your product, sharing roadmap updates, strategic goals, and wins with stakeholders all across the business.
• Map out and manage your stakeholder network, ensuring everyone has a shared understanding of what we’re building and the customer value we expect to bring.
• Team up with analysts and stakeholders to figure out exactly how we measure success, tracking both platform health and direct impact on the customer.
• Take full ownership of planning, running, and delivering key missions in your area, keeping things on track and making sure everything hands off smoothly.
• Put yourself in the customer’s shoes, working across UX, data, and engineering to uncover hidden pain points and turn them into great user experiences.
• Keep our product documentation in great shape, keep an eye on market trends, and help Senior or Group PMs out with commercial agreements and external suppliers.

Requirements

• Experience running your own dedicated product area, with some great stories about taking an idea from initial discovery all the way to launch and user adoption.
• A strong tactical mindset and comfort with agile ways of working, especially when it comes to cutting through complexity to deliver value iteratively.
• A natural urge to discover and experiment, meaning you’re entirely comfortable working alongside UX and engineering to test assumptions and build lean MVPs fast.
• Great data fluency and an analytical mindset, with experience defining metrics and looking at data to understand user behavior and how our platforms are performing.
• Top-notch communication skills, with the ability to confidently pitch your strategy, explain tough trade-offs, and clearly say why your product matters to the market.
• Experience navigating busy stakeholder environments, building solid trust, and keeping different teams aligned around a shared vision.
• Plenty of flexibility and focus, meaning you stay calm when things are ambiguous, juggle competing priorities well, and know how to weigh risk against business value.
• A healthy curiosity about the wider market, competitor movements, and how business cases and ROI tie into your product decisions.
• A deeply collaborative spirit that naturally bridges the gaps between UX, data, and engineering, keeping the customer’s real-world experience at the center of every single decision.
• Handy, but not essential: Previous experience thriving in a high-growth, fast-paced environment or deep domain knowledge within the energy sector.
