We connect FinTech Talent

We connect leading US FinTech’s with the people needed to drive their mission.

Our Story

In 2018, there was a boom occurring in FinTech. However, these companies were severely limited by their ability to find great people. They had access to huge amounts of capital, but all CEOs listed talent acquisition as the number one obstacle to achieving their company objectives and therefore get their amazing products out into the world.

There was no “go-to” FinTech recruitment market leader, yet these businesses were trying to build high-impact products and hire, rapidly. Large scale recruitment firms were deeply entrenched through decades of working in incumbent end markets, unable to pivot at speed toward new trends. Meanwhile, smaller agile boutique recruitment businesses could not cope with the escalating demand and rapid scaling of these sectors.

Storm2 was born from identifying this need and leaning into the niche-ness of the sector. In 2019 we were among the first truly specialist FinTech recruitment agencies.

Today, Fintech is no longer a new sector, and instead has grown to be heavily relied on by the world’s superpowers and customers alike. Storm2 has grown with it. We have been through our startup journey so understand what it takes to build a successful and robust business.

Storm2, operating out of London and New York, focus entirely on the US FinTech market. Our hyper-niche team of specialists don’t just work with FinTechs, but each have specialized further, only working with clients in Payments, LendTechs, WealthTechs or Blockchain. We have a deep network of individuals with top tier experience in these markets and we are ready to introduce them to you.

My experience working with the team at Storm2 has been nothing short of excellent. We are a hyper-growth company, with roles that are not straightforward to fill. Our consultant, Daniel, was exceptionally patient, understanding of the brief, and quick to deliver candidate profiles that hit the mark. . . 10/10 would recommend.

Worth had a fantastic experience working with Storm2. They were able to quickly and successfully place an Enterprise Account Executive who matched our needs exactly — both from a skills perspective and a cultural fit standpoint.
From the beginning, the team took the time to truly understand our company, our product, and the type of candidate that would thrive in our environment. Their communication was clear, proactive, and highly professional throughout the entire process.
