Byron Slosar Appointed as Chief Growth Officer at SkillsRight

SkillsRight has appointed Byron Slosar as Chief Growth Officer, adding a proven founder to its leadership. Slosar joins from Hellohive, the company they launched in 2020 and led as Chief Executive Officer before SkillsRight acquired it this year.

Career Highlights

Slosar's career began in 2002 at Tulane University, according to Crustdata people data. Starting as Regional Development Officer, Annual Fund, Slosar rose to Associate Director, Annual Fund. A move into national politics came next, with Slosar serving as Northeast Finance Director on a 2008 presidential campaign, before returning to Tulane University as a consultant to its Office of Advancement.

In 2020, Slosar founded Hellohive and spent six years building it as Chief Executive Officer. A graduate of Tulane University, Slosar holds a Bachelor of Arts in Sociology and Business.

Why It Matters For SkillsRight

SkillsRight, formerly OneTen, helps employers get skills-first hiring right. The nonprofit builds the systems, tools and practices that recognize and match talent based on skills, not just credentials, and equips companies with the data and strategies to turn skills-first commitments into sustainable, company-wide operating models. Crustdata company data shows a team of 35 people, and Slosar gives that team a growth leader who has built an organization firsthand.

Hellohive Joins SkillsRight

SkillsRight announced its acquisition of Hellohive on September 15, 2026, bringing the company Slosar founded into its fold. Slosar stepped into the growth role that same month, and the appointment was announced on October 20, 2026.

What's Next

Based in New York, Slosar now leads growth at SkillsRight. The appointment pairs a seasoned founder with a growth function that added a director-level leader in December 2025, positioning the organization to extend its skills-first work with employers.
