BMI has named Martijn Tel as its Chief Financial Officer (CFO).

Based in the PRO’s New York office, Tel joins its executive leadership team alongside Chief Technology Officer Tom Kershaw and Chief Transformation Officer Justin Rohde, whose appointments were announced in July, and will report to President & CEO Mike O’Neill.

He brings experience serving in senior financial positions at both public and private companies to his new role. Most recently, Tel served as CFO of Gerson Lehrman Group, a global data & information services provider backed by the private equity firm SFW Capital Partners. During his time there, he worked to lead a finance transformation that enabled the leadership team to better understand performance across different businesses, regions and clients while enhancing automation and upgraded systems, including the implementation of an enterprise data management system. Tel also previously served in CFO and operating positions at a number of companies in the information services industry and has worked with several private equity sponsors. A native of the Netherlands, he has two finance degrees from Vrije Universiteit in Amsterdam.

“Martijn’s wealth of experience, particularly working with companies with ambitious growth plans, makes him a perfect fit for BMI now,” says O’Neill. “I look forward to working with him and our team as we continue to implement strategic initiatives designed to fulfill BMI’s mission to grow the value of music for our creators and copyright owners.”
