In a nutshell, we’re a software company operating in the energy sector. Our world class Software as a Service platform is the go-to option for leading energy suppliers and new market entrants alike. To understand what we do, think about your home. Somebody supplies your energy, and those suppliers are our customers. They need software to manage your account. We provide a wide range of solutions from signing up customers, taking meter readings and generating bills, to the roll-out of smart metering, managing revenue leakage and the interaction with energy comparison sites.
We are based in Nottingham in the UK but are expanding into other territories across the globe. We have just over 200 employees and are one of the fastest growing tech businesses in the country.
We are experts in Energy, and our in-house operations team, which is where this role sits, act as an outsourced back office function. As an Operations Analyst, you will be the interface, the communicator if you like, between our various clients and the third parties who help the energy industry to tick.
Your job will be to make our clients' back office operations flow as smoothly as possible. You’ll work as a part of a squad of analysts to meet our agreed Service Level Agreements with each client, identifying and removing blockages like missing or erroneous data flows or resolving disputes to get things moving again. You will become an energy expert, an energy data flow expert, and ultimately, be part of a cracking team of industry professionals who offer a very well regarded, software and data-led managed service.
If you have any MS-SQL, then we are golden! But it’s not essential and otherwise the usual stuff like Excel, Word and Office 365 would be a great start. Some of our best people joined with very little energy or technical experience, so don’t let this lot put you off.
We work at a quite a pace. The industry is changing fast and we have to flex and adapt to keep at the forefront. You’ll need to be ok with that too. Switching priorities with ease, moving from task to task with speed and accuracy. You’d have to like change and variety to love working here.
Fundamentally, you’ll be naturally analytical. You’ll spot issues (like a meter reading that just looks wrong), see what doesn’t fit the expected pattern and then create a solution to get things back on track.
