Rick Hammell and the business of keeping a promise
He built Atlas from a Chicago dining table, then stepped away from the CEO’s chair to start again. At Globalli, Rick Hammell is still working on the obligation that launched his career: making global employment work for the people doing the work.
Jim McCoy
Jim McCoy is the CEO of Atlas HXM, the company that pioneered the direct Employer of Record model for hiring across 160-plus countries. He took the top job in December 2023 after 14 years at ManpowerGroup, where he scaled the world's largest recruitment process outsourcing business into 56 countries and managed a quarter-million placements a year. He builds for scale while obsessing over the local user experience, borrows ideas from B2C playbooks for a B2B world, and frames the work as democratizing access to economic opportunity.
