Mario Lupori

Mario Lupori isn't your average executive staying in a neat corporate lane. As Chief Financial Officer at Octopus Energy, he juggles a wide mix of commercial, financial and operational responsibilities. Why? Because he (and the other Octopus bosses) believe that keeping that nimble, fast-paced startup mentality is the best way to rewrite the rulebook for what an energy supplier can be.

He brings serious financial firepower to this tight-knit leadership team. Before diving into green energy, Mario spent over a decade scaling major financial products. He drove massive customer growth at Barclaycard and held key C-suite roles at the fintech giant RateSetter, steering the platform through complex regulatory shifts while managing a £1 billion annual lending portfolio.

Today, Mario is pretty obsessed with making energy fairer, cheaper and way more transparent. He's an active voice on our blog: check out his Middle East explainer, which he updates regularly to give a clear picture of how the war is affecting your energy bills.

Mario is a keen hiker and a dendrophile (which means he loves trees!) He also loves his heatpump tech.
