Monika Chmielinski
Director of Talent Acquisition
Helping People Build Successful Lives.
Monika joined The Bulfinch Group in October 2026 as Director of Talent Acquisition, bringing more than eight years of experience in talent acquisition with a Boston-based financial services firm. Throughout her career, she has gained valuable experience across various recruiting roles, developing an understanding of what it takes to identify, attract, and build relationships with talented professionals.
Monika earned her Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from the University of Massachusetts Boston. Her educational background, combined with her professional experience, supports her people-centered approach to recruiting. She believes successful recruiting starts with relationships and a genuine understanding of people, their goals, and what they hope to achieve in their careers. She is passionate about helping individuals find opportunities where they can grow, thrive, and build successful lives.
At Bulfinch, Monika brings this relationship-driven approach to attracting talent that will contribute to the firm's continued growth and success. She also recognizes the profound impact a financial advisor can have on someone's life. Beyond providing financial guidance, an advisor can become a trusted resource and a steady presence for individuals and families as they navigate life's milestones and challenges. Monika understands that finding the right people for these roles is essential -- not only to Bulfinch's future, but to the clients and communities the firm serves.
A lifelong resident of Walpole, Monika continues to call the town home, where she lives with her husband, daughter, and beloved Great Pyrenees, Sadie. Outside of work, she enjoys spending summers on Martha's Vineyard, attending concerts, exploring nature and the woods, and getting lost in a good book. Proud of her Latvian heritage, she also enjoys staying connected to the culture and traditions that are part of her family's story. Naturally curious, Monika loves learning and discovering new things, but above all, she treasures the time she spends with her family and the joy of being a mom.
