HEATING ENGINEER

Such a pro… it’s like you’ve got 8 arms. We're on a mission to drive the global renewable energy revolution, and we need loads more people to turn our vision into a reality. We're recruiting Heating Engineers to install our Air Source Heat Pumps.

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

At Octopus Energy Services, we put the customers’ experience at high priority, so you’ll carry out the work respectfully at their property. From day one you’ll be learning about new technologies and getting awesome training to give you the skills to assist the installation engineer. You’ll be responsible for:

  • Working as part of a team to install low carbon technology in customers' homes - starting with Air Source Heat Pumps

  • Using your knowledge and experience of heat pump installations to deliver an amazing experience

  • Reviewing and collaborating on technical specifications and mechanical drawings

  • Working with an electrician to commission Air Source Heat Pumps

  • Continuously learning about new technologies at our innovative R&D training centre

Who you are

We're looking for passionate people who have worked on the installation of heating systems, and we provide full training for candidates looking to make the transition to renewables. What do we need from you?

  • G3 (unvented cylinder) qualification OR proven experience

  • Experience in the installation of boilers - it's a plus if you know about Air Source Heat Pumps

  • Experience as a plumbing and heating engineer with knowledge of heating system design and the ability to fault find

  • Full UK driving licence with no more than 6 points

You may also have qualifications such as WRAS Water Supply Regs, Gas safe certification, UHW10/HWSS or the BPEC L3 heat pump installation, but these are not essential!

Our people are our strongest asset, and the unique skills and perspectives people bring to the team are the driving force of our success. As an equal opportunity employer, we do not discriminate on the basis of any protected attribute. Our commitment is to provide equal opportunities, an inclusive work environment, and fairness for everyone.

Join us in the Octoverse!

Octopus Energy is a unique culture. An organisation where people learn, decide, and build quicker. Where people work with autonomy, alongside a wide range of amazing co-owners, on projects that break new ground. We want your hard work to be rewarded with perks you actually care about like:

  • £38,000 basic (£45,000 on-target earnings) with overtime available (+ London weighting if living within M25) 

  • £2,500 annual performance bonus

  • Share Options in Octopus Energy

  • £25 per week lunch allowance

  • Training programme at our ground breaking R&D centre

  • Use of company tools, uniform and all PPE

  • Company Vehicle and fuel

  • Support for personal development in Renewable Tech

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 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.
