Fort Lauderdale, Fla. – April 20, 2026 – Engage PEO, a leading professional employer organization providing HR outsourcing solutions to small and mid-sized businesses nationwide, today announced that Ryan Schloss has joined the company as vice president of sales, Pennsylvania. In this role, he will collaborate with insurance brokers and other referral partners across the region to introduce Engage’s PEO services to more employers, helping organizations better manage their people, stay ahead of compliance requirements, and run more efficiently.
“In markets like Pennsylvania, business owners are looking for more consistency in how HR and compliance are handled day to day,” said Jay Starkman, CEO of Engage PEO. “Engage provides clients access to HR Consultants who are licensed employment attorneys, giving employers and their advisors a more reliable way to manage risk as issues come up. That level of support, combined with the way we work alongside referral partners, is a big reason we continue to see strong client retention and long-term relationships as we expand.”
“Ryan brings a strong track record of building momentum in competitive markets and staying close to the advisors and business leaders driving decisions,” said Patrice Alvino, group vice president of sales, Northern Divisions. “He knows how to keep deals moving while building relationships that last, and that aligns well with how we work with referral partners across the country.”
Schloss has more than 15 years of experience in sales leadership and business development, including time with a large national PEO where he collaborated with employers and advisory partners to assess HR, benefits, and risk management solutions. He has consistently achieved strong sales results, earning multiple top-producer awards while mentoring new sales professionals and building high-performing pipelines. Throughout his career, he has worked closely with C-suite executives and advisory networks to develop tailored solutions that align with each organization’s operational and financial goals.
“A lot of companies reach a point where the way they’ve been handling HR no longer keeps up with how fast they’re growing,” said Schloss. “What stood out to me about Engage is the level of HR expertise behind the model. Having access to HR Consultants who are licensed employment attorneys gives employers and their advisors more confidence in how issues are handled. I’m looking forward to working with partners across Pennsylvania and helping businesses put the right structure in place as they expand.”
