Specialist search for ABL, private equity, and finance leadership.
ATG Partners places senior accounting, finance, and asset-based lending professionals with firms built to scale — led by a founder who has actually sat on your side of the table.
We don't run volume desks. Every search is led personally, scoped narrowly, and measured by whether the placement is still in the seat two years later.
i.
Specialist by design
Four disciplines. One partner-led firm. We don't dabble in IT, sales, or operations roles — and we don't apologize for it.
ii.
Practitioner credibility
Founder Tom Agugliaro spent his early career at GE, Big Four transaction services, and an investment bank's diligence team.
iii.
Selective by mandate
We turn down searches we can't run with conviction. Clients get our attention, not a database query.
iv.
Measured by tenure
Placements are evaluated at 12 and 24 months. Long-term fit is the only outcome we recognize.
About ATG Partners
Recruiters who've sat on your side of the table.
ATG Partners is a specialist executive search firm focused on asset-based lending, private equity, accounting, and finance talent across the United States.
Founded by Tom Agugliaro — a Big Four-trained accountant and former investment-bank diligence professional — the firm partners with hiring leaders who need more than a recruiter. They need someone fluent in the work itself.
—Deep expertise across ABL, PE, accounting, and corporate finance
Every engagement is led by Tom personally. The model you choose determines exclusivity, prioritization, and fee structure — never the quality of the search.
Most accounting and finance recruiters are career recruiters who learned the vocabulary. ATG was built differently — on the conviction that recruiting is a craft, not a volume game.
i
Expertise & experience
Specialized recruiting across ABL, private equity, and corporate finance & accounting — led by a founder with practitioner-level fluency in each.
ii
Precision matching, not volume hiring
A high-touch, consultative approach aligning technical skill, industry experience, and long-term fit — never measured by candidate volume.
iii
Trusted partner on both sides of the search
We work closely with hiring leaders and finance professionals to deliver placements that hold up at 12 months, 24 months, and beyond.
