Atlas Partners —
Built on relationships,
driven by outcomes
Redefining recruitment through partnership
Founded in 2020, Atlas Partners was built on a clear belief — recruitment should be more than a transaction. It should be a genuine partnership.
Led by Liam Killen, Craig Gorton (CGMA) and Jake Densley, we work with finance and accounting professionals to help them make confident, well-informed career decisions — backed by insight, honesty, and long-term thinking.
Our mission is simple — to build the next generation of business leaders through generosity and meaningful conversation. That means showing up with practical support at every stage — before, during and well beyond a single career move.connecting candidates and employers through our networks.
We’ve been recognised for our Excellence in Candidate Experience (SEEK SARAs, 2024), but what matters most is the trust we’ve built. More than half of the professionals we work with come back again — because they know we’re here for the long game.
Our vision is to be Australia’s most trusted talent partner in finance and accounting — known for the strength of our relationships, the depth of our insight, and the impact of our community.
