Founded in 2019, Titanbay set out with a clear mission: to open up access to private market investments that were traditionally reserved for institutions.
Andrada Ciobanu, Associate Director of People & Talent at Titanbay told us that, “like many businesses, we’ve faced challenges in attracting and retaining top talent in a competitive market. But instead of cutting corners, we doubled down on investing in our people. Our benefits package has been a key differentiator, helping us build a culture of loyalty, engagement, and high performance”.
“We’ve also addressed the evolving needs of employees post-pandemic by creating a flexible, supportive workplace that ensures they feel valued”.
Andrada explained that, “for a company of our size, we have built an incredibly generous benefits package that goes beyond industry norms. Every single employee, from day one, is given access to a suite of benefits designed to support them holistically, professionally, personally, and financially”.
Titanbay offers -
✅ Health insurance and private dental cover – ensuring the team has access to the best healthcare when they need it.
✅ Share options for everyone, “we don’t just say our people are part of our success - we make sure they share in it. Every employee receives a generous share options package upon joining”.
✅ 28 days annual leave – “Because we know that real innovation comes from well-rested and recharged minds”.
✅ Life insurance and support for new parents – “Providing financial security and peace of mind for employees and their families”.
✅ Cycle2Work scheme & WFH tech contribution to support both sustainability and remote working needs.
✅ Rewards and discounts, flexi benefit allowance and wellness membership – empowering employees to choose perks that matter most to them.
✅ Employee counselling and wellbeing initiatives - “mental health matters, and we back that up with access to professional support and wellness memberships”.
Ifty Nasir stated that, “I’m thrilled to hand over the inaugural UK’s Most Generous Company prize to Titanbay!”
“They faced down fierce competition to secure the title and can be rightfully proud to be the ones lifting the trophy. For me, a company is stronger when everybody pulls together and everybody shares in the success. Titanbay’s benefit package is testament to that school of thought and it’s obvious that they are leading an excellent company culture”.
“There’s a level of consideration to all of Titanbay’s benefits that adds up to a significantly people-focused environment. From shares (which obviously, we at Vestd love!) to generous annual leave, life insurance, WFH tech contributions and support for new parents. On all fronts, Titanbay is demonstrating that it really genuinely cares about its people”.
Simon Squibb added that, “Out of all of the entries, Titanbay just blew us away completely. It’s really clear that the company is incredibly invested in their overall employee experience and that generosity is at the heart of everything they do”.
“They told us that their benefit package had become a ‘key differentiator’ helping them to attract and hang onto talent, and we could really see that in the breadth of what they offer their team members. Not only do Titanbay team members enjoy full health and dental cover, but they also have access to employee counselling and wellbeing initiatives AND share options for everybody! And on top of that, none of this is gatekept for long-term employees, it’s there for the taking from day one”.
“Anybody that knows me knows that I’m huge on the power of sharing, and this level of respect for the team has accelerated Titanbay’s place in their industry and I’m certain it will secure them success for years to come. Huge congrats to everybody at Titanbay!”
On receiving the award, Andrada said that
“Our focus on financial security, wellbeing, and flexibility has resulted in higher retention rates, stronger engagement, and a reputation as an employer that truly cares”.
“Ownership is one of our core operating principles, and something we live by every day. We take great pride in the fact that each of us is an owner, sharing both the responsibility and the success of what we’re building together - and we’re absolutely thrilled to see that recognised with the award from Vestd!”
