[Global] Jim McCoy appointed as new CEO of Atlas
20 Dec 2023

Employer of Record (EOR) services provider Atlas has announced the appointment of human capital industry veteran Jim McCoy as its new Chief Executive Officer. Mr McCoy succeeds Rick Hammell, who remains Atlas' majority shareholder and chairman of the board, Atlas reports.

Atlas will reportedly continue making a global impact through its enterprise-grade technology platform and solutions, under Mr McCoy's strategic direction, allowing companies to expand to over 160 countries quickly and compliantly. Atlas’ expert team and innovations help companies deploy a global workforce without the need for a local entity or multiple third-party providers.

"Throughout his career, Jim has been recognized as a transformational leader. His international client servicing background and strength in building scalable and efficient solutions for enterprises, while still prioritizing the local user experience, is exactly what makes him a fit for Atlas," Rick Hammell - Founder and Chairman of the Board of Atlas - said. "He understands our mission and is ingrained into what modern organizations need to sustain talent and grow beyond borders. This is a new era for Atlas, and I am confident Jim's leadership and experience will usher in great innovation and success for our employees and clients."

Mr McCoy reportedly brings more than 20 years of global leadership experience to Atlas. Before coming on board, he spent 14 years at ManpowerGroup, where he grew and led the largest provider of recruitment outsourcing by revenue, expanding the operation into 56 countries and managing over 250,000 placements for his clients annually. Most recently, he led Enterprise Sales for ManpowerGroup in North America, with a team responsible for the 350 largest client engagements in the region.

"I am thrilled to join a team of HXM leaders and problem solvers that are pushing the boundaries and transforming what the global workforce looks like," Jim McCoy - the incoming CEO of Atlas - said. “Over the years, Rick Hammell has revolutionized the future of work by turning Atlas into a global leader. As the new CEO of Atlas, I aim to ensure Atlas remains a pioneer, pushes boundaries and fosters a positive work environment. Together, we will explore new opportunities and innovations to further serve our clients across the globe.”
