MEET REBEL ENERGY 

We do things differently at Rebel Energy. Energy is changing and we’re the energy company that’s making that change fair, sustainable and inclusive. Helping customers in need, not looking away. Putting people, not profits, first. Real affordability, not inflexible pricing. And customer care that actually cares.  

This isn’t just a business, it’s a new way of doing business.  

WE ARE DEFINITELY NOT EVERYONE’S CUP OF TEA: 

• Rebel is a progressive company where there is no hierarchy, no titles, everyone has equal power, and anyone can make a decision. So, if you like structure and certainty, we are definitely not right for you. 
• We have a flat structure we don’t have managers and we work in unique way with self-managing teams. The expectations of our colleagues are very different than you will have experienced in previous companies you have worked for. You are responsible and accountable the buck stops with you. That might not be something you desire so please don’t apply.  
• With a relatively small number of colleagues. You must contribute and take the initiative. You’ll have to adapt to the fact that not everything will be in place or running perfectly. If you expect to turn up and just ‘do’ a job then Rebel is not for you.  
• There won’t be the same support framework or infrastructure you’re used to – those things might need to be created by you. So, if you expect someone to hold your hand think again. 
• We have a very open approach to communication, you have the freedom to challenge others around you but must also be prepared to be challenged, as from healthy conflict comes healthy dialogue. We strive to always be working against the same problem not each other. Being able to share your true feelings, be listened to and understood whilst respecting each other's views is crucial at Rebel. If you get bruised easily then maybe reconsider.   
• Working at Rebel WILL feel uncomfortable, scary and stretch you out of your comfort zone it will take a lot of personal commitment and courage to succeed at Rebel, it’s not for the faint hearted.  

IF YOU LIKE US SO FAR THEN CONTINUE: 

• We offer a huge amount of freedom for you to choose what you do and what you work on, to help us lead the way and have a personal impact on creating amazing service for our customers.  
• You will have a crucial and individual impact on how Rebel is doing. We will value your talents, and give you the freedom to ask, ‘why not?’ You’ll have more responsibility for the whole picture and be able to influence this on a day-to-day basis. 
• This is a place where you’re motivated to show your skills. Where you’re listened to. Where you can actively seek out the challenge of the new, we give you the courage to set things on fire and we want you to be unafraid to fail. Where you can collaborate with like-minded souls who believe in, and share, our desire to build something better. Here, you can be your brilliant self. 
• We prioritise your wellbeing, your happiness and your ambition to create a better world. We want all of our colleagues to be genuinely fulfilled.  

• This is a company that’s ours, and yours. At Rebel, you can enjoy your work, and the feeling that you’ve achieved something at the end of each day, knowing that the next working day will bring even more opportunities to improve what we started – and create a better world for everyone. 

HAVE YOU GOT WHAT IT TAKES TO JOIN THE REBELLION? 

We are looking for audacious individuals who actively seek out the new, who are open minded and prefer flexible, fluid, organic ways of working. Those that can sense change and evolve and are ready to make an impact on the world with creativity and care. For those that do fail come back stronger, better, smarter. Humans who have ambition, believe in what they’re going to do next, don’t wait for someone to hold their hand and just get on and do it.
