Greg Jackson
Founder
Greg Jackson is the founder and CEO of Octopus Energy Group.
Back in 2015, he set out to create a better energy company with customers at the heart, and Octopus was born. Growing up, it wasn't uncommon for the power to get shut off at Greg's family home. Today, he's got a ruthless focus on making energy fairer and more affordable for all.
He also reckons it's important to talk to customers as directly and openly as possible. It's part of the reason we have a blog, so whether it's Andy Burnham axing VAT from energy bills, or war breaking out in key gas-producing regions, you know exactly what it means for your energy bills.
Greg, a Cambridge-educated serial tech entrepreneur, has built and sold a number of successful businesses, including C360UK, which is now part of Tangent. He's also an angel investor in a wide range of start-ups, such such as Xlinks and Zopa, and a key thought leader in the UK on matters linked to the energy transition, energy costs and innovation.
