Octopus Energy is building Octopus Electric Vehicles (OEV) Germany, a B2C sales operation offering electric vehicles to employees of partner companies through salary sacrifice arrangements. You will be a sales specialist responsible for advising employees of partner companies on electric vehicles, charging technology, and the tax benefits of the employer-provided model.
Key Responsibilities:
- Provide personalized, empathetic consultation to employees from partner companies, guiding them from initial inquiry through vehicle purchase. Explain complex topics like taxation and vehicle range in accessible, relatable terms.
- Contribute to continuous improvement of sales processes and advisory tools for the German market by bringing insights from customer conversations.
- As the team grows, take on responsibility for onboarding and mentoring new colleagues, sharing knowledge about employee needs and helping scale the B2C operation.
- Conduct virtual information sessions for employees, maintain CRM records, and manage customer relationships.
- Help shape how quality advisory looks at OEV as the company builds out in Germany from the ground up.
You will be the bridge between corporate clients and their employees, delivering a simple, personal, and high-quality experience. The role offers the opportunity to work in a dynamic, early-stage environment where processes are still being refined and your input directly shapes how the business operates.
Requirements:
- Excellent German language skills (minimum C1 level, spoken and written) for direct communication with German employees.
- Very good English for collaboration with the international team.
- Ability to explain complex topics (taxation, vehicle range, sustainability) clearly and persuasively without being pushy.
- Comfort in dynamic, fast-moving environments; pragmatic problem-solving mindset.
- High service standards; understanding that you are facilitating an employee benefit, not just transacting a vehicle sale.
- Genuine interest in sustainable mobility and e-vehicles (technical expertise not required; curiosity and enthusiasm are).
- Active listening skills and ability to identify customer needs and match them to solutions.
