Our story
We didn’t start 4most to just “do” consulting.
We started 4most to build a great place to work.
When we opened our doors in 2011, we set out with a clear intention: to bring a truly people-based business to the world of consulting.
Since then, our business has flourished because our people have flourished. We’ve invested in our team since day one, championing them wholeheartedly, and giving them the tools and trust they need to carve out their own path.
It’s this people-first culture which enables 4most to deliver tailored and innovative solutions for our clients, wherever they are in the world. It’s why we’re able to foster such long-standing relationships with the teams we work with, and why our first-ever client is still a happy client today.
We have always been a people business. That’s what makes us different.
That’s what makes us 4most.
Think less ‘Big 4’, and more 4most
4most is born
In May 2011, 4most is founded with four employees. From the very start, we set out to build a progressive and fun place to work, where our people could flourish while being true to themselves.
From employees to owners
After two years of consistent growth, ownership options are issued to all employees — because we believe in sharing the value we create.
Adapting to IFRS 9
Our growing reputation sees 4most support numerous banks in the UK, Ireland, Canada, UAE and Malaysia to build a range of effective IFRS 9 models.
Introducing life insurance
As we look to expand our service offering, we hire a new partner and land our first insurance client in the same breath.
Even more employees, even more invested
In July 2018, we make the bold decision to make all of our employees shareholders. Now every 4moster benefits from our success.
One of Europe’s fastest-growing companies
We make the Financial Times’ annual list of Europe’s fastest-growing companies for the first time, coming in at #241. We’ll make the list in 2020 too!
An award-winning culture
Our unique culture is recognised at the Credit Strategy Awards, as 4most wins the ‘Best Company to Work For’ award. We’ll win again in 2020, 2021 and 2023, as well as taking home the same accolade at the Women in Credit Awards in 2021, 2022 and 2023.
An international expansion
Having grown to become the UK’s largest specialist analytics consultancy, we expand our horizons, launching in the UAE and Africa.
A physical presence in India
The latest addition to our team joins 4most as Director of 4most India, opening a new office and establishing a dedicated analytics team in Bangalore.
200 FTE with a diverse leadership team
4most celebrates hiring our 200th employee. To top it off, more than half of our leadership team is now female!
More investment incoming
In April 2023, 4most receives substantial investment for its continued growth and expansion, and rewards all existing employees for the growth to date.
Destination Dubai and Scotland
After securing our tenth client in the UAE, 4most opens a new office in Dubai, closely followed by a physical office being established in Edinburgh.
More to come…
We’re not finished yet. Stay tuned to find out what exciting new projects, milestones and developments we’ve got in store for the near future.
Trusted to deliver
We believe that long-lasting relationships create the best results. That’s why our first client is still a client today, and why so many others trust us to deliver.
