Money shapes every part of life. Yet most people never get the support they need:
There’s no shortage of information. What people actually need is clarity, guidance and a plan that makes sense for them.
That’s where we come in.

We believe everyone deserves money support that works for real life.

About Octopus Group
We're part of Octopus Group, a privately-owned business that's spent 25 years doing things differently. Octopus Group builds businesses designed to outlast it, aiming to leave things a little better for the generations that follow.
That same instinct runs through the whole group:
We share that same DNA, doing the same thing in a different corner of people's lives: money.
Octopus Group doesn't just talk about entrepreneurship, the group enables it. Springboard, a program open to anyone however junior or senior, lets people pitch an idea to win funding. A number of businesses have been started this way, founded by former Octopus employees.
Please note, as a regulated business we are required to run background checks for all employees which covers adverse financial and unspent convictions. These will only take place upon a successful job offer.
We believe in equal financial education for everybody, no matter their background. The same goes for opportunities within our team. We pride ourselves on building an inclusive working environment where diversity is celebrated.
We do not and never will discriminate on the basis of race, religion, colour, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, age, marital status, veteran status, or disability status.
