Leadership–

Richard Goldstein, CPA

Chief Financial Officer

Mr. Goldstein has been an integral part of the company’s evolution. Not only is he a dynamic finance executive with more than 35 years of experience, but he also happens to be Naik Group’s key authority on all-things finance, including accounting, information technology, and human resources.

Mr. Goldstein, a native New Yorker, and Queens College alum, is known for being a strategic thinker and meticulous team leader. This is evident in his ability to build strong business relationships, improve processes across functions, advise on all aspects of operations, and establish accounting systems. His career is filled with instances where he enhanced profitability, decreased costs, and bolstered efficiency. In addition to developing innovative financial management and accounting solutions, Mr. Goldstein negotiated advantageous vendor contracts and credit/debt agreements.

“I think what differentiates our firm from others is our people,” Mr. Goldstein says. “Sanjay really values his team. I’ve known him just as long he’s had this firm, and his management style has made Naik Group a positive environment to work.”

When it comes to recreation, Mr. Goldstein is a big believer in maintaining a healthy work-life balance. You will likely catch him in his off hours enjoying the outdoors, spending time with his grandchildren, playing pickleball, or listening to an eclectic playlist of rock hits.
