Investor Management Services

March 2019

We're at a very exciting time at IMS, and we've had an amazing ride over the past two years getting here... When a team achieves 10x growth over two years, you know you're building something special. More than anything though, I'm most proud of our people, who established the passion and belief in our vision to create something lasting -- that's inspiring. Success truly is all about the team. That brings me to you...

Like you today, I had options about where I wanted to work. I was seeking a company with a purpose; a clear vision I could be passionate about. Second, I was seeking an early-stage company that offered opportunity for impact (I didn’t want to feel like a number). Third, I sought a company building something that mattered, something that could make a difference in the market (I didn’t need to change the world, but working on another big data app was not inspiring). 

I found all three ‘personal pursuits’ in IMS and realized this could be a once-in-a-career opportunity. Our vision is noble – we’re disrupting a FinTech market that has resisted technology for 30 years, at the detriment of investor transparency.  IMS has quietly onboarded over 500 customers to provide over 50,000 investors with a world class experience.  Think Netflix to Blockbuster but in the private equity market.  IMS partners with leading sponsors to remove the black box to enable a new generation of investor with software, mobile, and analytics.

Do you feel stagnant in your current job?  Does it feel like it’s just a job?  I’ve been there.  The long-run cost is on your career… as months turn to years, you’re not growing fast enough.  

The key to professional growth is a balance of exposure and opportunity to make an impact. Both can be optimized within an early-stage startup. Radical Transparency is a Core Value at IMS – this gives you full access to the context from where decisions, outcomes, and learnings stem from. We’ve experienced such career acceleration dozens of times - high potential teammates bending their career trajectory when the lid is lifted on their potential. You can achieve five years of professional development inside 18 months with the right attitude when given exposure to the right environment. 

It is an incredible honor to lead and serve the team at IMS and our customers. The future we are building together is bright. We will continue to lead the industry with a platform to deliver trust and transparency, while launching new products to drive value for customers.    

We kicked off 2019 with an expanded headquarters in Lower South End Charlotte.  This investment was careful and deliberate to our long-term strategy. We understood the full potential of IMS was entirely dependent on attracting and growing the best talent. We believe a world-class office environment will foster the vibe or kinetic energy of something special… You should work at a place that allows you to be the best version of you, alongside a diverse and inclusive set of people you respect and can learn from. 

IMS will follow our Core Values to ensure our culture remains vibrant and growth-oriented as we add new members to our team. We’re building a culture of transparency, where we welcome the hard questions and share the learnings from our mistakes safely/openly. When employees act like owners, performance thrives.  Therefore, our employees are granted stock in IMS; this aligns focus on creating lasting value! 

We work hard because we are passionate about building IMS into a new market leader. Think about a time you were passionate about building something special… You worked hard then too. I would like to encourage you to put yourself in growth mode.   

If you are passionate about what you do and value your time, we should talk. We value the opportunity to work together as one team, to share and learn together, and to attack a plan with a clear vision and strong purpose. If this aligns with your personal values, let's discuss your potential at IMS. 

Regards,

Chris Atkinson
