Our Purpose

To create happiness in ourselves and others.

Our Values

• We are a family. Just like any other family, we laugh, cry, celebrate and commiserate together. We may come from many different backgrounds, but we’re always there when it really matters.
• Sharing makes us stronger. Knowledge is more powerful when it's shared. Which is why we share everything – our ideas, our expertise, our news and most‑of‑all our time.
• Show humility. Share and work together, and anything is possible.
• Own your space. You are Atlas. Don’t be afraid to make decisions. Use your time wisely and treat every pound as if it was coming from your own pocket.
• Be honest. Always. Have the courage to do the right thing, even when no‑one is watching.
• Be yourself. Authenticity breeds trust. Trust brings happiness.
• Treat clients like our best friends. If we’re a family, then our clients are our best friends.
• Start with Wow and never settle for less. Create time to focus on quality and prioritise long‑term solutions over short‑term fixes.
• Constantly seek opportunities to learn from others, and if something doesn’t make sense, shout.
• Don’t just talk. Do. We are a business that thrives on doing.
• Embrace change. Keep it simple. Keep meetings short. Plan just enough to succeed. And then get on with it.
