00:00 We're joined here by staff from Amber Gaming and Jade is going to speak to us.
00:04 Jade, you won the Teams Working Together award which was sponsored by Utmost International.
00:10 First of all, tell me a little bit about Amber Gaming.
00:13 Amber Gaming is a specialist gaming consultancy firm who provides best-in-class compliance service to the gaming community.
00:21 We look after a large proportion of the Isle of Man's gambling operators as well as others abroad.
00:27 How many staff do you have?
00:29 We have approximately 40. We're a sizable team, a really diverse team of people, different genders, different ages, different nationalities.
00:41 Together we collaborate to achieve the best possible results for our clients.
00:46 What do you think is the secret to your success? Why do people go to you?
00:49 I think it's because we're honest, we really stand behind what we believe in and we work with our clients as if they're our partners.
00:57 We're really candid with them, we listen to them and like I said, I think the whole is greater than the sum of its parts.
01:04 The diversity that we have means that we can give genuine advice and solve problems that they may have.
01:11 You won the Teams Working Together award. Tell me a bit about how the teams work together and what's the usual interesting bit about that?
01:18 We've actually structured our teams according to their specialisms.
01:21 Tom to my left, he looks after our compliance consultancies area of the business.
01:27 Mike to my right, looks after our accountancy team.
01:30 We've got a team of people who actually do the corporate governance administration and we also have a training team.
01:35 Together we pool our skill sets to make sure that we can provide a holistic service to our clients and cover every facet of what we need.
01:43 We empower our people to make decisions, to run their business areas and I think that's really been the secret to our success.
01:50 Brilliant and what does winning this award mean to you?
01:53 I'm just so proud. It was a lovely surprise but I think it's just testament to the work that we've all done.
01:59 We put our heads down and we go on with it and I think it's seldom you take the chance of the opportunity to simply reflect on the previous sort of years worth of work.
02:09 So it's just a lovely accolade for the team and I'm super proud of them all.
02:13 Well congratulations once again and thank you very much.
02:15 Thank you so much.
02:16 Thank you.
02:17 [Applause]
