The Austin Business Journal has promoted Bob Sechler to the role of assistant managing editor.

A story on its website states, “Sechler fills a role left vacant after Kathryn Hardison was promoted to managing editor in October. Hardison succeeded Will Anderson, a longtime editor at ABJ, who was promoted to editor-in-chief of the Dallas Business Journal.

“Prior to becoming assistant managing editor, Sechler spent six years at the Austin American-Statesman and 15 years as an Austin-based reporter for The Wall Street Journal and Dow Jones Newswires.

“A longtime Austinite, Sechler brings a wealth of institutional knowledge to the role. He assists with reporting and managing daily operations of the newsroom, and he’s hit the ground running.”
