Our Team

Dick Satterfield

Founder & Managing Partner

"After graduating with Honors from Purdue University with my BS degree, I began my business career over the next twelve years with Procter & Gamble in several Sales and Brand Management leadership roles. I then moved on to become a Senior Consultant with Glendinning, specifically focused on Sales Reorganization and Category Management consulting engagements. Following my experience with Glendinning, I moved to a start-up marketing and promotion agency called On Target Media. While there, I was a critical leader for the company that was responsible for guiding it's growth from $0 to $22 million in revenue and in turn make Inc. Magazine's list of the top 100 fastest growing companies.

As the Founder of Satterfield Renzenbrink Associates, I've developed an extensive network of senior level clients and candidates that has and will continue to enable us to identify and place superior talent for our clients. For me, building great management teams that drive long-term value and growth for their organizations is a matter of pride."

Paul Renzenbrink

Managing Partner

"After graduating from Xavier University with my BS degree, I’ve spent over 30 years building businesses primarily within the Consumer Markets & Retail industry. I began my business career in Sales Management at Procter & Gamble before becoming President of Advantage Sales & Marketing (i.e., CMI Brokerage) for the greater Ohio, Indiana, Kentucky and Michigan regions. Additionally, as a Board Member of Advantage Sales & Marketing, I was responsible for building their first national customer and client teams. I then led the executive team building process for Integrated Marketing Services from being a start-up enterprise to one of the top 20 advertising agencies in the country.

My passion is building brands, businesses and teams. I view every individual and situation as a unique opportunity to drive value for our clients. At the end of the day, the ability to align candidate strengths with client needs leads to effective, long-term relationships and mutual satisfaction. My single minded mission is to build long lasting and mutually beneficial relationships. That requires a deep understanding of client and candidate needs."

John Kuklinski

Senior Partner

"After graduating from Northwestern University with both my BS and MBA degrees, I spent the first 20 years of my career in Line Marketing and Sales Management roles that have provided me with a diverse set of experiences to draw upon today. Prior to joining Satterfield Renzenbrink Associates, half of my career was working on OTC and Rx drugs at Pharmaceutical companies like SmithKline Beecham, Bayer and The ViroTex Corporation. I've also held leadership positions at several other reputable organizations in the Consumer Packaged Goods industry, including Procter & Gamble, Pillsbury and Tropicana.

Since joining the SRA team as a Senior Partner, I have completed searches across business functions primarily focused in the Consumer Markets & Retail and Healthcare & Life Sciences industries. I know what it takes to make success happen from a client's perspective. I've launched nine new major products nationally and have been a part of turning around six declining businesses. Perhaps most importantly, I've been a part of five businesses that have been sold or moved. I understand the dynamics of change in an organization and how to staff a changing organization appropriately for long-term success."

Sheryl Wengel

Senior Partner

"Throughout my career in both Line Management and Executive Search roles, I have been successful aligning the right people with the right opportunity by putting an emphasized focus on delivering sustainable results.

I am a seasoned recruiter with 25+ years of relevant experience and success in Marketing & Sales for Fortune 500 companies in the Consumer Markets & Retail industry, including companies such as Procter & Gamble, Colgate-Palmolive, James River (i.e., Georgia Pacific) and Signet Banking (i.e., Wells Fargo). The hallmark of my Marketing career was turning around declining businesses through product development, brand repositioning work and cost savings initiatives. Additionally, I've obtained client side experience in organizational development, training program development and in-house recruiting leadership.

Based on my experience as a hiring manager, candidate and recruiter, my priority in executive search is to create value-added processes and mutually beneficial end results for all involved parties."

"After graduating with Honors from Ohio State University with my BSBA degree, I started my career in a variety of Finance leadership roles for several business units within the GE portfolio, including GE Transportation, GE Lighting and Current by GE. I then returned to school full-time to earn my MBA degree from The University of Chicago Booth School of Business, where I specialized in Finance, Accounting and Entrepreneurship.
