And Then One Day You Find … 10 Years Have Got Behind You

Subscribe to our newsletter

A-Team is 10 years old this month. Hurrah!

Named for its founders – Angela Wilbraham, our CEO, and Andrew Delaney, our President and Editor-in-Chief – by the legendary John Whelan back in the Waters days. Enduring abuse of the choice ever since. But, no regrets.

At our recent birthday party in London, we were touched to see so many friends come by to share this special moment with us. It’s all about the people, and we’re blessed at A-Team – and indeed in our industry – to count among the people we employ, service and generally rub shoulders with as among the smartest and most sophisticated on the planet.

Today, we’re launching FinTechPeople.com, a new subsite dedicated to the people of our industry. Here, you’ll find out who’s moving where; read Q&As with movers, shakers and other A-Team friends and family; and learn who’s hiring and who’d firing. Got a job you need to fill? Get in touch, we can help.

We know it’s the people of this industry that make it so special. So, if you weren’t there to hear it in person, all of us at A-Team would like to send our customers, our contacts and all of our friends in the industry wherever you are, a big Thank You! Here’s to 10 more years of independent, interesting and entertaining insight into our fascinating marketplace.
