Anasuya Iyer
Chief Commercial Officer, Octopus Money
Anasuya Iyer is Chief Commercial Officer at Octopus Money, where she leads the mission to make financial advice as accessible as a gym membership. She works closely with HR and Reward leaders to help employees build financial confidence, reduce money stress, and plan for brighter futures.
She brings deep experience across financial services and business growth, having held senior roles at Octopus Investments, Jefferies, Deloitte, and Willis Towers Watson. With a background in Mathematics and Actuarial Science, and an MBA from London Business School, Anasuya combines technical expertise with a passion for practical, human-centred solutions to money.
Growing up in India, Anasuya saw first-hand the impact of social inequality, which fuels her belief that great financial advice can unlock brighter futures for everyone.
She regularly speaks on financial wellbeing, inclusion, and the role of employers in shaping healthier financial futures for their people. Outside of work, she dreams of one day owning a vineyard – ideally one with wine good enough to toast brighter financial futures.
