Atlantic International names Kevin Murphy as chief financial officer

Atlantic International Corp. (NASDAQ: ATLN) appointed Kevin J. Murphy as chief financial officer, effective February 2, 2026, according to a company statement.

The staffing and workforce solutions provider made the appointment as it integrates its recent acquisition of Circle8 Group, a European IT and technology staffing firm. The transaction created a platform with approximately $1.2 billion in annual revenue and expanded Atlantic's operations into European markets.

Murphy brings over 25 years of financial leadership experience across staffing, technology, and data services companies. He most recently served as executive vice president and division chief financial officer of Hospitality Staffing Solutions, where he also operated in a CEO capacity and helped deliver 17% revenue growth over two years.

Previously, Murphy held the position of senior vice president of finance and treasurer for a staffing business during its transition from private equity ownership to private company status. Earlier in his career, he worked in senior finance roles at LexisNexis, including as CFO of a joint venture and director of finance for a $115 million data services segment.

"Kevin is a seasoned financial executive with deep experience in staffing, private equity environments, and complex operating platforms," said Jeffrey Jagid, chief executive officer of Atlantic International. "As we continue to scale Atlantic and integrate recent acquisitions, Kevin's operational mindset, capital markets discipline, and hands-on leadership style make him an ideal fit for this next chapter."

Murphy holds a bachelor's degree in accounting from Eastern Illinois University and is a certified public accountant.

Atlantic International provides staffing services across food production, manufacturing, and logistics sectors through its subsidiary Lyneer Staffing Solutions, with the Circle8 Group acquisition adding IT and technology staffing capabilities in Europe.
