Seckler will work across various disciplines at Justworks—including marketing, sales, customer success, insurance and risk, product and engineering—to further expand Justworks’s core business.

“Mike has a deep understanding of the entrepreneurial journey,” said Justworks Founder and CEO Isaac Oates. “His extensive knowledge of the HR technology sector, together with his business-building experience and a strong belief in cultivating people’s potential make him the perfect addition to our leadership team as we enter our next phase of growth.”
