Bob Van Rossum
CEO, Founder and Managing Partner

Bob Van Rossum has been a leader in the executive search industry for more than a decade. He has placed senior leaders from presidents to CMOs to heads of strategy and just about everything in between. In addition to being the founder, strategic visionary and CEO of Pax Gabriel, Bob is also the leader of our marketing and financial services practices.

Prior to founding Pax Gabriel, Bob served as president of MarketPro, the nation's leading executive search and contract staffing agency specifically focused on marketing talent. At MarketPro Bob was responsible for overall strategic direction, growth and management of the company. Under his leadership, MarketPro experienced unprecedented growth and developed into a technology leader and innovator, earning the distinction as the go-to search firm for marketing executives and interim marketers.
