As chief strategy officer, Roselli is responsible for leading strategic planning, new market business development, and mergers and acquisitions for the organization. He will oversee Renaissance’s strategy and business development team, and will help grow the organization’s footprint domestically and internationally to continue to support educators and students worldwide.
He joins Renaissance from Adtalem Global Education, a $2 billion publicly held education provider.

“I am pleased to welcome John to Renaissance,” says Daniel Hamburger, CEO of Renaissance. “Having worked with him in the past, I know he will bring valuable expertise, enthusiasm, and a strong focus to this role as chief strategy officer. He will be instrumental in driving Renaissance’s continued success, and I am thrilled to add someone of his caliber to our leadership team.”
Roselli brings to Renaissance more than 25 years of global experience in business strategy, operations, finance, and acquisitions. During his 14 years at Adtalem, he initially oversaw strategy and business development, leading the process of diversifying the organization through multiple major acquisitions. He was later promoted to leadership of the professional education division. Previously, he served as chief financial officer and vice president of business development at Indeliq, and as vice president, business development for W.W. Grainger’s Internet commerce unit.
“In meeting with individuals from Renaissance’s mission-driven team, it has become quite clear to me that we share the same passion for education and enhancing student outcomes,” says Roselli. “I look forward to joining Renaissance and applying my experience to help the organization continue to deliver on its purpose of accelerating learning for all, worldwide.”
