Daniel J. Muhlfelder, President/CEO

Dan was hired as part time help during the summer of 1977. He learned about the staffing industry, literally from the ground up. A graduate of Rutgers University, Dan came to work full time after college and has been here ever since. As a recruiter Dan was very adept at working with candidates to find people who not only met the clients technical requirements but also people Dan knew would excel in that environment, By doing this he had developed a following of people who knew that they could depend on Dan for a productive assignment. In 1994 Dan was made the Vice President of Personnel where he looked to do with the company what he was able to do individually, match the right people to the right positions. It progressed well and in 2008 Dan purchased the company with Mr. Stafford from Lawrence Gonzer. Dan is currently a Board Member and Chair of the Executive Leadership Committee for the New Jersey Staffing Alliance, as well as a standing member with the American Staffing Association.

David C. Stafford, Vice President/COO

David has been with L. J. Gonzer Associates since April, 1984, where he started as a sales representative with the company. Working directly with clients and having come out of an inside sales position previously, David had a solid background working with customers. In addition to his personal interests in technology and engineering, he had taken several design and engineering courses which allowed him to feel very comfortable working with the engineering community. Very quickly his understanding of the types and breadth of projects made clients comfortable that he was someone who could understand their needs and not just another sales person unfamiliar with their environment. In 1999 he was made the Vice President of Sales and in 2008, he and Mr. Muhlfelder purchased the company from Lawrence Gonzer. In addition he is a Certified Staffing Professional by NAPS and a member of the New Jersey Staffing Alliance and the American Staffing Association.
