Octopus Energy has issued a major two-day announcement - as it calls it "essential" . The energy giant, which is rivalled by British Gas, EDF, EON, Ovo and more, has teamed up with The King’s Trust and Indeed for the first Jobs That Matter festival.

The two-day event, held on September 25 and September 26, saw 50 young people given the chance to network, interview and learn firsthand from industry experts.

By the end of the event, 30 candidates that interviewed progressed to the second stage, and six additional young people were added to employer talent pipelines for future vacancies. At Octopus Energy alone, 17 of the 23 candidates who interviewed for roles received same-day callbacks.
