[Atlanta, GA - October 7, 2025] - In response to a rapidly shifting finance ecosystem demanding specialized talent, Tatum by Randstad -a trusted partner for professional and executive talent, leadership consulting, and finance transformation-today announced the appointments of Tony Uyehara as Executive Vice President and Nicole Smidt as Senior Vice President. These strategic new roles directly reflect the firm's accelerated growth strategy focused on specialization, positioning Tatum to meet the growing need for leaders who can navigate financial transformation, regulatory complexity, and technological disruption.

Both Uyehara and Smidt bring extensive experience and a strong record of accomplishment that will be vital in guiding Tatum's next phase of growth.

Tony Uyehara, joining Tatum as Executive Vice President, will be responsible for driving overall growth and strategy for the U.S. practice.
