With over 25 years of experience in wealth creation, retirement planning and business succession, Brendan Atkins brings a steady hand and a strategic mind to his role as Partner and Senior Adviser at Halpin Wealth. Based in Darwin’s CBD, Brendan is passionate about helping clients take control of their financial futures with clarity and confidence.
Brendan’s career in financial services began in 1987, initially in general, and life insurance, before stepping into a leadership role at an independent insurance brokerage. Over time, his focus developed to address more complex financial needs—particularly for business owners, professionals and retirees seeking tailored strategies to grow and protect their wealth.
Known for his deep industry knowledge and client-first approach, Brendan has helped hundreds of individuals and families navigate key financial decisions. Whether guiding someone through the transition to retirement or helping a business owner build a succession plan, Brendan offers trusted advice with genuine care.
Outside the office, Brendan is just as driven. A qualified Offshore Yacht Master, he spends much of his time sailing and racing both locally and overseas. He also lends his skills to the Darwin Sailing Club and supports a range of community organisations. Brendan’s passion for giving back extends to his role as a board member of HPA Disability Services—one of many ways he contributes to causes close to his heart.
At home, Brendan enjoys a vibrant family life with his partner, Kerri and their two children, Lucas and Rose. He’s a keen adventurer who has explored the world through scuba diving, bushwalking and mountaineering.
