In just four years, Octopus Electroverse has grown to become one of the largest eMobility players in Europe, with over 1,250,000 connected electric vehicle chargers and a customer ecosystem spanning web, iOS, Android, CarPlay, Android Auto & Automotive OS, and more. 

But that’s just the start - we’re busy launching new products, working with more automotive and tech partners, building exciting new features at scale, and creating the integrated charging experiences of the future - all in the name of making the electric transition super simple. 

To make this magic happen, Electroverse is a multifunctional team comprising product, development, commercial, operations, marketing, partnerships, Security and more - all focused on making Octopus the go-to name in EV charging. And we’re looking for smart individuals with an interest in the space who can help us make it happen. 

About the role

We’re looking for a detail-driven Information Security Analyst to support and develop our Information Security Management System (ISMS). Over the next year you’ll help keep us audit ready, manage evidence and make sure our security processes run smoothly as the team continues to grow.

Identify opportunities to make assurance and compliance processes more efficient
Your work will help maintain our ISO 27001 certification and strengthen everyday security practices across Electroverse

What You'll Need...
Understanding of how an ISMS operates and knowledge of standards such as ISO 27001
Experience and strong interest in governance, risk and compliance and audit work
A good grasp of key information security and data protection ideas
Great organisation and attention to detail
Clear communication skills and the confidence to work with different teams
A practical, flexible approach that suits a busy environment

What May Help...
Familiarity across frameworks like SOC 2, NIST and COBIT
Hands-on experience supporting ISMS audits and certifications such as ISO 27001
Experience with supplier assurance and third-party risk management
