Global fintech group joins tech community at the Glasshouse

Global fintech firm, Quint Group, is the latest business to join a growing community of businesses at Alderley Park’s Glasshouse tech hub.

The group, which owns a number of fintech businesses focused on improving access to credit, has operations as far afield as San Diego, Warsaw, Sydney, Cape Town and Foshan as well as in the UK. Moving its HQ from Macclesfield to the Glasshouse will help the group, whose client roster already includes the likes of Goldman Sachs and Admiral, support its ongoing growth.

The global fintech has taken 12,000 sq ft of space at Glasshouse, a burgeoning community of tech sector businesses at Bruntwood SciTech’s Alderley Park development. Other businesses already at the site include Lokulus and CurrentBody.

Mike Ransom, Quint Group managing director, said:

For over a decade, and despite a challenging 2020, Quint Group has successfully gone from strength to strength and our old office no longer suited our need for a more flexible and collaborative workspace. After a careful review process, we selected Glasshouse at Alderley Park for our new UK HQ.

“Innovation is what powers our business and so becoming part of an ecosystem of like-minded businesses at Alderley Park will be great for us. And on a more tangible level, it’s a beautiful environment with brilliant amenities that will mean our team is excited about coming into the office.”

Kath Mackay, managing director of Bruntwood SciTech – Alderley Park, said:

Glasshouse has been specifically designed for digital and tech businesses, providing space to collaborate, network and grow. It’s the perfect place for Quint to kick start its ambitious growth plans. 

“To see a business such as Quint relocate from Macclesfield to Alderley Park is a real endorsement of the community we’ve created here, with co-location playing a major part in their decision to move. It’s also a sign of the strength of the wider fintech ecosystem in Greater Manchester and its growing contribution to the UK’s global reputation.” 

Greg Cox, founder & CEO of Quint Group, added:

Our move to Glasshouse allows us to provide a world class working environment for our fantastic staff in a space that represents where we are and where we are going as a business. I see our move as the start of an exciting new chapter in our growth story.”
