“Connor brings a unique combination of PEO experience and insurance agency expertise, which makes him an excellent fit for our team,” said Jay Starkman, CEO of Engage PEO. “He understands both sides of the equation—how brokers support their clients and the HR challenges those clients face, particularly in New York state. That perspective will be a tremendous asset as we continue to build strong broker partnerships and support businesses in the Northeast and nationwide. 

Before joining Engage, Lowe most recently served as a broker for a large national agency, providing health and benefits consulting to mid-market employers. He also had a decade of experience in national PEO sales, consistently earning top performance awards. As a certified e-commerce practice leader, Lowe has developed strategies that integrate HR and insurance solutions, making him uniquely qualified to support Engage’s broker partners and their clients. 

“I’m passionate about helping brokers find the right solutions for their clients,” Lowe said. “At Engage, that means offering not just HR outsourcing, but high-quality HR consulting delivered by experienced attorneys. Engage’s service delivery stands out because we don’t just check boxes—we build real partnerships that make a difference for businesses. I’m looking forward to contributing to that mission.”
