James Roten

biography

Mr. James Roten founded Raven Communications, Inc. in September of 1998. The first division, currently in operation provides an I.T. Staffing Services solution. James founded this division based on his previous experiences and expertise as an International Sales Manager for a Global Recruitment firm. He trained from the ground up and worked through the channels of recruitment, account management, sales consulting and on into International Sales Manager. James became a well-seasoned expert in the Technical Recruitment Industry.

Mr. Roten implemented certain policies and procedures that are actively practiced in the Staffing Division today. He has learned the rights and wrongs of the industry and the environments that he has worked in, to develop a tried, tested and successful "Contract, Contract to Hire and Full Time" Staffing Services Division.

Together with the executive staff and the support teams, it has been identified that we are involved in a key part of the project based business. For every project, there is the need for engineers. However staffing is only half of a very large picture.

In April of 1999 Mr. Roten partnered with Mr. Barry Bestpitch and collectively formed Raven's Second division known today as the I.T. Professional Services Division. With the technical industry experience and expertise that our Director's and Managers have, this completes the full circle. Mr. Roten now utilizes his experience and expertise; to drive both divisions as a complete value add customer service solution for all of our clients technical needs. From IT Staffing to IT Professional Services we can provide a well-rounded solution, to accommodate any project a client may test us on. One internal value add we pride ourselves on is when our professional services division gets a new project, and all of our resources (Contractors and Full Time Employees) are completely tapped. We utilize the IT Staffing division to supply for the demand in technical talent for the projects on a Local, National and even Global basis. In most cases it is a 24 to 48 hr turn around time frame from the need of a new engineer, to the hire date.

In September of 2001 Mr. Roten started the third division of Raven Communications, Inc. This division is known as the Incubated Office Solutions division. Ravens commitment in the "Incubated Office Solutions" model, is to provide a streamlined "Plug & Play" business solution for start up to small sized companies. Assisting individually or collectively in four primary business focal points "Operations Infrastructure, Information Technology Infrastructure, Telephony Infrastructure and when needed the Accounting Infrastructure". Ravens goal in the "Incubated Office Solutions" model, is to strategically catapult a start up or small sized company into the future by eliminating the critical time and costly resources that are so frequently invested in the traditional vortex of building a successful Business Infrastructure from scratch.

Mr. Roten strives to create a comfort zone, internally, client side and with our business partners to build the confidence level in knowing that Raven has the expertise and resources in the technical industry to accommodate just about any mission critical or time sensitive project.

In the limited free time James does have, he enjoys working out, skydiving, hiking, barefoot water skiing, snow skiing, playing base and acoustic guitar. In October of 1989 Mr. Roten earned a graduate diploma in Lake Wales, Florida. In August of 2000 Mr. Roten was accepted into the Nationwide Register's Who's who in Executive's and Businesses.
