PHR, Sr. Director of Human Resources
Liz is the balancing force at BANKW Staffing. Her passion for achieving physical health, mental clarity, and the power of positive thinking, helps everyone in the office keep work and life in perspective.
With such a deeply rooted passion for experiencing life, it’s no surprise that Liz’s journey led her to a career in human resources.
“At the most organic level, we’re all humans. My life experiences have given me the clarity to embrace the fact that we’re far from perfect and can be complicated at times. As a human resource professional, you must be able to understand that to be able to relate to, empathize with, and understand people.”
Liz’s ability to bring people together paired with her prior experience in organizational leadership, management, recruiting and executive support have made her an invaluable asset. Since 2006 she has played a critical role in the BANKW’s continuous growth through her expert management of the company’s administrative, HR, and operations staff.

A former BANKW client, before joining the team Susan worked at three staffing companies as a controller and vice president.
“I worked with BANKW on the client side and saw the incredible care and attention they gave clients and candidates. They always put people before business, so when I had a chance to join the organization, I jumped on it.”
Now, as controller for BANKW, Susan not only heads up financial reporting, planning, and analysis, she brings vast experience in process improvement and organizational development to help guide BANKW’s growth. “I love being a part of a growing organization, and implementing processes and procedures to build a healthy, efficient, and successful organization.”

Whether he’s in the office, on the golf course, or relaxing at home with a glass of wine, Jason is a passionate entrepreneur who continually seeks out new ways to think about business.
As a founding partner of all five BANKW Staffing companies. His frequent combination of aggressive ideas and creative strategies (fueled by copious amounts of coffee) have played a key role in the award-winning growth of the businesses.
“I love a good business story. I want to know how businesses scale, the challenges they face, and how things are manufactured. But even more importantly, I want to create our own story.”
Drawing on over a decade of experience in senior management and operations roles with international staffing, internal audit, and hospitality organizations, Jason leads BANKW’s sales strategy, staff development, and operations.

Paul Becker
CPA, Co-CEO & Co-Founder
After starting his career in public accounting, Paul turned his expertise to recruiting accounting and financial professionals for an international staffing firm. He spent close to 9 years at this firm and over the course of a few months he made a number of life decisions. It was also during this time that Paul met his wife.
“I knew after our first date I was going to marry her. We quickly got engaged and married. It was then that I began playing with the idea of creating my own firm. Starting my family motivated me to go all in.”
Paul partnered with two other talented industry professionals—Jason Kroll and Gary Wing—to form KBW in 2005. Following the success of KBW, they’ve since added four sister companies to the BANKW family: The Alexander Technology Group, The Nagler Group, KNF&T and Sales Search Partners. Now over 17 years in, Paul is proud of his team and considers them part of his family.
A sports fanatic, when he’s not busy overseeing the operations of the BANKW companies, you’ll find Paul rooting on his favorite Boston teams, spending time with his family, and playing sports with his two boys.
Gary Wing
Chief Sales Enablement Officer & Co-Founder
Fostering relationships and building trust with customers has been a fundamental belief of Gary’s since he embarked on his recruiting career in 1999. When contemplating this career change, he asked some MBA peers at business school whether they could envision him in a sales/advisory role – “We thought you were in sales already?” To which he would inevitably reply, “No, I’m an analyst… in a bank… with spreadsheets.” Collectively, everyone realized this was an opportunity he should pursue. Since then, Gary has dedicated himself to building relationships with customers and colleagues alike by becoming a trusted advisor. Gary’s advice to new recruiters, or new sales professionals: “Don’t do things just to make money. Do things the right way, and success will follow.”
“It’s important to help customers realize the role we play in assisting their own corporate objectives. We’re here to educate customers on the local staffing market, quickly show what options are available, and highlight how other customers have been successful when partnering with BANKW. Customers rely on us to make quick, informed decisions that positively contribute to their own goals and objectives. None of this happens without trust – and that comes when we regularly engage with a customer.”
This central theme is what drives Gary – originally to start KBW with Jason Kroll and Paul Becker, and now as Chief Sales Enablement Office, to educate BANKW team members to develop their own skills to become successful recruiters.
Gary earned his Master’s in Business Administration from Boston College’s Carroll School of Management and his Bachelor of Science in Business from Brown University. He lives in Bow, NH, with his wife Andrea, and their two children. You may also find Gary these days on his Peloton! When taking an 80’s or 90’s rock ride, keep an eye out for Boston_Recrutah!

His dedication to the human resources field and his passion for helping others grow—personally and professionally—Is what led him to BANKW Staffing. “I started these companies because it provided the ideal environment for me to focus on the things that matter most to me—family, friends, colleagues, business, and community—and create the life I wanted.”
