About EC1 Partners
Get to know us a little better
Our Story
Establishing ourselves in early 2008 during the financial crisis, we have demonstrated that not even a tough market can slow us down. EC1 Partners, while capitalising on the wealth of experience the team possesses – was created as we saw a need for a new, more dynamic, more adaptable outfit that truly does what it says. Not only in terms of delivery for those we work with, but by creating an ongoing success story and building on proven track records within sales and the financial markets.
As we’ve grown, we’ve developed our service offering and built unrivalled connections and relationships with the top talent in Sales and Marketing, Technology, Product Management, Professional Services, Operations, Compliance and Support, Pre-Sales, Customer Success and Interim/Contract. Rework content: Within those areas, we cover roles such as: RegTech; Electronic Trading; ESG & ClimateTech; Crypto, BlockChain & Digital Assets; alongside many more. We’ve also grown our international reach with offices based in London, New York, Miami and Singapore. We service the global FinTech market with a comprehensive covering, ensuring that at all times, we are connected with the top talent in each sector.
With one eye firmly fixed on the present and the other fixed on the future, the only direction we are moving is forward.
