SolomonEdwards Announces New Leadership

John Gulnac named Chief Executive Officer

PHILADELPHIA--(BUSINESS WIRE)--SolomonEdwards announced today that John Gulnac has joined the firm as Chief Executive Officer and a member of the company’s Board of Directors. An industry veteran with more than two decades of experience leading organizations and teams, Gulnac will drive SolomonEdwards’ next phase of growth as a professional services platform company, along with the executive leadership team and its private equity partner, Renovus Capital.

Gulnac joins SolomonEdwards from private equity-backed professional services platform firm NSC, where he was responsible for the operational and financial outcomes of an organization with more than $200 million in revenues. Prior to that role, he led the national search practice for Adecco, where he oversaw exponential top- and bottom-line growth over a two-year period. Gulnac is based in the Austin, Texas, area.

“John is the right choice to lead our firm at the right time,” said Ed Baumstein, who founded SolomonEdwards in 1999 and previously served as CEO. “He combines a strong strategic perspective, a creative leadership style, deep sales and operational experience, and a nuanced understanding of our industry—qualities that will serve us well as we continue to expand our capabilities and differentiate ourselves as a trusted business partner,” said Baumstein, who will continue as Chairman of the Board.

Gulnac said he’s excited to join SolomonEdwards as the firm intensifies its focus on strategic growth and enhancing client service delivery. “SolomonEdwards has always had a great reputation for helping companies solve complex business problems, meet urgent deadlines and find better ways to work. I look forward to working with the exceptional leadership team and consultants at SolomonEdwards to create even more value for our clients and the outstanding professionals we represent.”
