Another Senior Hire for Growing Strive

London-based Strive Insight has appointed Alex Webb as Client Director, its seventh employee, and says it is on course to more than double revenue this year.

Strive was launched in the summer of 2015 and says in five months of its second year of trading it has already exceeded revenue for its first 12 months. The agency works in sectors including telecoms, technology, financial services, utilities, media, luxury and drinks brands.

Like two of Strive's three founders, Webb previously worked at Incite - now part of the St. Ives Group. He spent six years at the company, in the role of Partner, with a focus on clients in technology and financial services; and before five years as a Managing Consultant at TNS UK, including a year on secondment to TNS NIPO in Amsterdam.

In his new role, Webb will work closely with Director Mark Yeomans, another former colleague, to help clients in the financial services sector to exploit new opprtunities.

Co-founder David Walker comments: 'Alex is a great addition to our team and brings with him substantial expertise in the technology and financial services sectors. We're particularly keen for him to help clients understand the changing landscape of financial services, the rise of FinTech and the impact of digital and contactless payments'.
