Meet the team

Adam Mommsen
Adam MommsenDirector
I have 15 years’ experience delivering payroll and accounting services to staffing companies and contractors. My focus at Atom is ensuring we provide a brilliant and personal service to those who wish to contract or freelance in the UK and internationally.

I live in SW London with my wife and two boys. Most weekends I’m at either the rugby or cricket club with my boys or working in my garden, listening to music. In another lifetime I’d loved to have been a filmmaker, chef, gardener… or professional cricketer!

Tom Buckley
Tom BuckleyDirector
I’m a qualified management accountant and have worked in the Umbrella/recruitment sectors since leaving university. My most recent role was as finance director for a start up all the way through to it’s trade sale in 2021.

I’m excited to form Atom and am focused on providing an efficient and compliant payroll solution for temporary workers whilst offering excellent service for contractors, agencies and end clients.

I’m a keen sports goer and avid Evertonian season ticket holder……for my sins!

Glen Smith
Glen SmithDirector
I am a chartered accountant with 15 years’ experience owning and operating payroll and accounting companies providing services to contractors.

My hobbies are anything classic car related including taking part in road rallies (with my wife as the long-suffering navigator!), attending shows & events and reading just about every monthly car magazine that is available. When I’m not doing any of those I enjoy walking/hiking holidays, lying on a beach or ‘chillaxing’ sipping a negroni.

Chris Le Clos
Chris Le ClosBusiness Development Manager
I have over 16 years’ experience with a track record of business development success spanning across multiple African markets including Ghana, Nigeria, DRC, Mozambique, Botswana, Zimbabwe, and South Africa. I’m passionate about people and fostering strategic customer partnerships and driving sustainable business growth tailored to the unique needs of each market.

On the weekend you will find my son and I in the ocean soaking up the rays on our surfboards.

Jyoti Silwal
Jyoti SilwalInternational Operations Manager
I have nearly 10 years’ experience operating and managing international contracting, PEO, and payroll services. I began my career in international student immigration where I honed my onboarding, compliance, and operational management skills. A decade later I’m proud to be an experienced professional, recognised for expert domain knowledge in the international payroll industry.

In any spare time, I love reading, pencil drawing, and painting!

Brian Russell
Brian RussellPersonal Tax Specialist
With circa 49 years’ experience working in the personal tax field, 32 of which were spent in the Inland Revenue/HMRC. I managed to escape in 2008 my final role there being a tax inspector. Although I am way past retirement age, I am a somewhat of a workaholic and was humbled to be asked to join Atom having worked with many members of the current team in the past who I regard as friends rather than colleagues. My main driver has always been, and will continue to be, to provide the best in customer service.
Janine Le Clos
Janine Le ClosCustomer Support
I have over 12 years’ experience in an operations and support roles across various industries allowing me to develop versatility and excellent service skills.
My corporate journey started at a small tech company, and I eventually moved into payroll services for contractors. Outside of the office I’m a mom to a ridiculously sporty son and probably too many dogs. So, any spare time is spent on the side of a rugby field, or a swimming pool come rain or shine.
