“We are thrilled to welcome Ben to our leadership team. His strong pedigree in industry-leading, high-growth consumer internet companies will help fuel the next phase of Jobcase's empowerment of the world's workers,” said Jobcase founder and CEO Fred Goff. “Ben is the latest in a string of key new hires this year at Jobcase, joining the likes of Senior Vice President of Product Jeff Chow from Trip Advisor and Chief Financial Officer Beth Clymer from Bain Capital. Ben's deep experience leading companies through the private-to-public journey, strategic acquisitions, and international expansion make him an invaluable addition to the executive team.”
Ben spent nearly a decade at KAYAK, the majority of which he served as its General Counsel where he managed the global legal team.
