Building better teams and a better world.
Who We Are
Workzone was founded in the early 2000s when Rick and Allan realized that marketers needed a better way to manage their projects and collaborate with other teams. Of course, it didn’t hurt that they were also great friends who wanted to work together every day.
Since then, Workzone has helped thousands of businesses become more productive. We’ve grown from a small rag-tag team to a slightly larger rag-tag team of people who love to come to work and solve problems every day.
We empower our people to do good in the world, which is why every employee gets a sizable allowance to donate to a charity of their choice. We also participate in team volunteering in our local area whenever we get the chance. It’s one of our most important programs and we’re proud to have donated $2.1 million over the years.
Workzone’s mission is to make our customers successful, keep our team happy and healthy, and help those who need it.
Our values
Question everything
We hire people who are innately curious about how the world works: the people who ask ‘why?’ before taking action. We question ourselves, each other and our customers to make sure we never get too complacent or comfortable.
Act with purpose
Workzone’s product and people have one big thing in common: purpose. Our software is built thoughtfully designed to ensure only the good stuff gets in - the features that will really benefit our customers. And our team? We have one shared purpose: to make our customers successful.
Kindness counts
Kindness is underrated and overlooked, which is why we actively list it as a job requirement when hiring at Workzone. When your job is to make customers successful, kindness, compassion and thoughtfulness go a long way.

Meet our team
Kevin spends most of his time building things with code, but in his off-time he loves building things with wood.
Melissa is a world traveler with a love for the great outdoors. She spends her workdays helping Workzone customers overcome their biggest project management challenges, and saves lives as a crisis counselor in her spare time.
Chris is a Workzone ace and an accomplished cook. Despite having traveled to all 48 mainland US states, his favorite place on Earth is still his bed in Philadelphia.
George was born in the Rocky Mountain foothills but still knows his way around a keyboard. When he’s not building campaigns, you can catch him serenading sea lions on Alki Point.
By day, Alex helps teams build sustainable project management processes and better workdays. By night, he’s a talented photographer and woodworker.
Pokey (Short for ‘pokey-mom’) because the folks who found her and brought her to the rescue were literally walking around west Philly, while playing Pokeymon Go when they found this very very pregnant puppy)
Connor has an encyclopedic knowledge of Workzone. Outside the office, he writes and performs music and keeps his legendary cool by practicing meditation and yoga regularly.
As the hero of Workzone HQ, Lisa keeps everything running smoothly day-to-day. She loves to travel, but her favorite place is still her Maryland home on the Bohemia River.
Ginger likes going for rides with her Mom and Dad. On the bike, the boat, the golf cart, the paddleboard, and most of all in the truck. Don’t mess with her truck!
Trevor “Local Legend” Machinia leads Workzone’s Product Specialist team. Although he can transform *anything* into a drum kit, he never learned the lyrics to his favorite songs.
Allan bravely served America and its allies during World War II, and currently works as Workzone’s Chairman and Co-Founder.
Amir is a strong customer advocate and an accomplished guitarist who has called two countries home and is welcomed wherever he goes.
Russ helps teams find better ways to manage projects when he’s not watching the travel channel, riding his bike, or heading out for dim sum.
When she’s not managing accounts receivable for Workzone, Nicole sings like a mockingbird and bakes like nobody’s business.
Mike is a true Workzone maestro. As an Albuquerque native, he loves taking trips to the Sandia Mountains, where he worked his *second favorite* job as a ski instructor.
Rick built Workzone, the HQ’s beautiful conference table, and his own desk. His appreciation for perspective keeps him seeking new heights as he hikes through mountain trails.
Snickers’s face may say cuddly puppy, but this 9-year-old mutt is all business. Don’t get on his bad side, as this 17-pounder thinks he’s a big tough dog (a bad habit that he learned in the dog shelter where we found him).
Drew spends most of his time developing the Workzone platform, but in his free time he loves to golf and plays six musical instruments.
Ringo’s favorite activities are watching and chasing birds in the field behind his house and finding the sunniest places to take a well-earned nap afterward.
Joe keeps Workzone stable and secure for users across the globe and coaches baseball in his off time.
Steve manages Workzone’s marketing ops. He plays vintage base ball (yes, two words!) on the weekends, but his favorite activity is snuggling on the couch with his wife and daughter.
Jon helps teams across the country find the best way to manage their projects. He’s never without his dog Max by his side, whether he’s in the ocean or atop a mountain.
Max loves going for hikes and making sure his dad, Jon, is getting enough exercise.
When he’s not helping teams manage projects, you can find Eric cooking up some of his award-winning chili or catching rays on the beach.
Glynnis is a world traveler who spent seven years living across five different cities across Australia. She’s dedicated to helping teams of all sizes break challenging projects into manageable tasks.
Matt is equally at home in the mountains or at the ballpark. He loves singing almost as much as he loves helping teams find better ways to tackle complex workloads.
