After 17 years as CEO and nearly two decades since founding ALKU, I am proud to share that I will be transitioning into the role of Chairman. I am even prouder to announce that Andrew Bull will become ALKU’s next CEO, effective September 9. When I started ALKU in 2008, the goal was simple: build a company where people could grow, thrive, and have a lot of fun doing meaningful work. ALKU has always been about the people. Andrew Bull is one of those people. He started as our first intern, and most recently President of ALKU, and has helped shape the company every step of the way. We started out with a handful of employees and now we have over 500 and are a $550+ million company. There is so much to reflect on and be proud of. Thank you to each of you I have worked with over the years. I am incredibly proud of what we have built together. Cheers to what’s ahead! https://lnkd.in/ewX3mA39 #ALKU #Leadership #Gratitude #Staffing #Recruiting #NextChapter

I’m honored to share that I’ll be stepping into the role of CEO at ALKU. I couldn’t be more grateful or ready for this opportunity! Fifteen years ago, I joined ALKU as an intern. I was just trying to figure out who I was as a professional and where I could contribute to the new and exciting specialty staffing company Mark Eldridge had founded. Here, I've had the opportunity to grow, lead, and learn from some of the best people in the business. My journey may sound unique, but I’m proud to say it’s just business as usual at ALKU. We’re a company that develops talent from within, giving employees every chance to thrive. Mark, thank you for your tremendous leadership and vision and for trusting me to carry your legacy forward starting on September 9th. I consider myself so lucky to be able to “Have fun working hard” alongside amazing people, including our incredible executive team Jon Kujala Amy Ainsworth David Bruner Nick Vignone Lauren Pacella Leah Bourdon Dennis Kapsimalis David Tuell David Esteves James Cassin-Reed . To everyone at ALKU: thank you! Your energy, hard work, and belief in what we’re building is what makes this place so unique. Let’s do this! https://lnkd.in/evcvztkT #ALKU #Leadership #InterntoCEO #Staffing #Recruiting #HaveFunWorkingHard
