Gratus Capital To Move Headquarters To Buckhead's Piedmont Center

ATLANTA, GA — Gratus Capital, the Atlanta-based wealth management firm, will move its corporate headquarters to Buckhead after signing a long-term lease to be housed inside the Piedmont Center, the company announced Thursday.

The move from its current office space on Riverwood Parkway will take place this fall when Gratus will take over the fifth floor of the Piedmont Center. The company has added 12 new employees – wealth advisers, client service managers and analysts – to its financial planning and investment services team over the past year.

The company has 40 employees and plans to add to its workforce as it serves the Atlanta region, West Palm Beach and across the southeast.

“The last year has been filled with adjustments for our clients and our community. The team at Gratus Capital has shown its resilience and increased service and support for both, and I’m ecstatic to be able to move forward with this new office in the heart of Buckhead to write the next chapter in our growth story," Gratus Capital founder and CEO Hank McLarty said in a news release. “We’ve made big strides since 2005 and this new space will better support our continued team expansion and firm initiatives designed to serve the long-term needs of our clients."

Renovations on the 20,000 square foot office space began in June. The office will have an open concept with 360-degree window views of Atlanta. The space will also include podcast and video recording studios as well as client-facing meeting space and an in-house café.

Gratus Capital is in its 16 year of operation and continues to advance among the nation’s leading
independent wealth advisory firms, the release said. Last year, Forbes recognized the firm for the fifth consecutive year as one of its Top 250 Wealth Advisors and Best-In-State Wealth Advisors for the third consecutive year.

"I am incredibly proud of the growth and innovation of this firm,” Gratus Capital President Neil Campbell said. “We are making bigger strides each year to supporting the long-term financial goals of individuals, families, foundations and other institutions nationwide. We’re actively looking to attract other industry professionals who share our vision and want to grow with us here in Buckhead.”
