"Montreal Associates is an entrepreneurial, quality-driven and international company.
Having lived in Stuttgart for the last nine years I'm excited about moving to Frankfurt
to head up the new office. It's exciting to see this start-up project come to fruition
supported by a long-established company where the values of training and strong
career paths continue to drive the company forward."

GOLD STATUS CSR

9. This quarter, the MA Elite team flew down huge zip wires and leapt off Tarzan Swings whilst enjoying
high rope obstacles at Battersea Park's Go Ape. The team thoroughly enjoyed the experience - even
Faye who realised she was afraid of heights.
The day was rounded off with food and drinks at The Ship which was located next to the Thames.
Thanks to everyone who participated!
GO APE!

10. Montreal Associates is up 18% in growth in employee count year-on-year.
As the company expands, 30 new members of staff have been appointed between May 2015 and 2016.
The new members of the team are based in both London and the newly opened Frankfurt office.
Of the headcount growth HR and Office Coordinator Omiros Angelopoulos said:
"We've had a tremendous increase over the last 12 months. We have had a particular focus on increasing
the headcount of the Delivery Team. We had eight new starters since March and this was due to existing
members receiving promotions."
YEAR- ON- YEAR GROWTH

11. CHARITY PARTNER 2016
Montreal Associates announce its 2016 charity partner as Teenage Cancer Trust.
Teenage Cancer Trust is the only UK charity dedicated to improving the quality
of life and chances of survival for young people with cancer, aged 13 to 24. They
develop specialist units within NHS hospitals and provide expert nursing and
support staff who provide the best possible tailored, individual care and
information whenever it’s needed.
Their aim is to provide every young person with cancer to access to this specialist
support, no matter where they live. However, for every young person Teenage
Cancer Trust helps, there’s another they cannot currently reach - working
towards an ambitious goal of reaching every young person with cancer in the
UK by 2020. The trust needs to raise over £80 million to make this happen.
Our goal is to help the charity throughout the year by running a series of fun
events to raise funds.
