Ilan Daskal has resigned from SunEdison Inc. a few months after he was named chief financial officer designee of the solar power company.

SunEdison, which filed for bankruptcy in April, said last week that Chief Executive Ahmad Chatila resigned.

On Tuesday, the company named Philip J. Gund as CFO. Mr. Gund is a senior managing director of consulting firm Ankura Consulting Group LLC and a former chief restructuring officer for prepaid phone-card company Vivaro Corp.

SunEdison said March 11 that Mr. Daskal would become CFO designee and said CFO Brian Wuebbels would focus on his role as CEO of SunEdison's yieldcos TerraForm Power and TerraForm Global. On March 30, the yieldcos said Mr. Wuebbels departed.

SunEdison said in a May 12 filing that Mr. Wuebbels was given a formal 30-day notice that his employment was terminated.

SunEdison grew rapidly and had a market value that approached $10 billion in 2015. But its debt-fueled expansion was hurt by falling oil prices and turbulence in capital markets.

Mr. Daskal is a former interim CFO of design and engineering company Aricent and a former financial chief of molecular diagnostics company Cepheid.

Another Ankora senior managing director, Salvatore LoBiondo Jr., has been named SunEdison's corporate controller, a post that has been open since the beginning of the company's bankruptcy process.
