Summary

Hello, my name is James Roberts, and let me tell you a little bit about myself. I am a very active person in and out of work. I have a wife whom I have been with for four years and counting, and one daughter and one son who keep me on my toes, which makes me think a lot about responsibility and safety so I can come home safely to them. My hobbies now are hunting, tramping, and long-range shooting. I am a part of the MISC (McLean's Island Shooting Club, formerly NZHA) and Melvern Rifle Club, and I have been a member for almost six months. I enjoy hunting for food in our many D.O.C. blocks for the pure excitement of sourcing sustainable meat for my family. I enjoy going to both ranges to meet and speak to experienced people who have passed on a wealth of knowledge. I am currently working for ExxonMobil through NES Global Talent; I want to expand my career options and am looking for any opportunities available. I am dedicated to my job and will be a great asset to any sector, work fields I am put into. I am willing to start anywhere and progress into the best that I can be for my employer. I have a positive, can-do attitude, and am respectful of others. Given the chance, I do believe I would make a great employee for your company.
