    Everyone belongs at OVO

    At OVO, we are on a mission to solve one of humanity's biggest challenges, the climate crisis. And we know it takes all of us to change the world. That's why we need diverse people from all abilities, gender identities, ethnicities, ages, sexual orientations, life experiences and backgrounds to join us.

    Teamworking for the planet

    Everything we do here spins around Plan Zero. So, naturally, the team you'll be joining plays a gigantic role in making that happen. Here's how:

    Our team looks across OVO's portfolio of energy products, including our innovative offerings that help customers achieve net zero. We think about what we expect different types of customers to consume across these products, what that costs us and if that's aligning to the revenue we receive, and then work with stakeholders from across the business if this ever misaligns.

    We make sure that, wherever estimation or judgement is required, our customer outcomes are as accurate as possible, demonstrating that our customers can trust us with their energy. Where we spot issues or misalignment between our revenues and our costs, we work to rectify this for our customers and to secure OVO's financial position.

    We'll pay you between £35,000 and £45,000, depending on your specific skills and experience. If your expectations are a little different, have a chat with us!

    We keep our pay ranges broad on purpose to give us, and you, flexibility to match your experience to our zero carbon mission.

    You'll be eligible for an on-target bonus of 15%. We have one OVO bonus plan that focuses on the collective performance of our people to deliver our Plan Zero goal.

    We also offer plenty of green benefits and progressive policies to help you feel like you belong at OVO…and there's flex pay. It's an extra 9% of your salary on top of your core pay to use as you like. You can take it as cash, add to your pension, or choose to spend it on a huge range of flex benefits.

    Here's a taster of what's on offer:

    For starters, you'll get 34 days of holiday (including bank holidays).

    For your health
    With benefits like a healthcare cash plan or private medical insurance depending on your career level, critical illness cover, life assurance, health assessments, and more
