Jacob Turner

President

I began working with Richard Yoerk and Express Personnel in 2001 as a key leader in business development. In 2003 I took over the day to day management and development for Rovers Security, a subsidiary of YS2 Group, the parent company of Express Personnel and Rovers Security. In May of 2007 I formed a new company named RS Managements Services Co., which for that year managed all of Rovers Security’s event accounts. In the beginning of January 2008 RS Management Services Co. purchased Rovers Security Co.

Prior to Rovers Security, I served 3 ½ years in the United States Army National Guard where I applied discipline and motivation in my role as Squad Leader. Security experience was obtained through various field and garrison security details. Later I worked in sales both outside and in, then became the General Manager of a modeling agency, putting to use my management skills as well as sales and customer service.

I have worked closely with the Oregon Department of Public Security Standards and Training to insure that all Rovers Security officers are certified and trained as required by the State of Oregon. In addition, I have orchestrated an internal training program designed to keep our officers proficient at the state mandated skills, as well as offering new skills in customer service and numerous situational trainings developed to teach skills in handling threats and natural disasters.

I was born and raised in Portland Oregon, graduated from Benson High School attended Mt. Hood Community College and Portland Community College.

Eric Bjork

Portland Branch Manager

I am an Oregon native that grew up in the rural town of Newberg, about 30 minutes west of Portland. At the age of 10, I moved to Gladstone, OR where I attended middle school and high school, graduating in 1996. Upon graduation, I attended Oregon State University, where I studied both business administration and Japanese language. I decided to take a break from school in 1999 and found myself working various jobs, eventually finding my way into the restaurant industry. I worked as a server and assistant manager with different companies in Oregon, California and Washington, and have been working in that industry since 2001. In 2008, with some encouragement from my wife, I decided to finish my college education, so I enrolled at Portland State University where I studied Human Resource Management, earning my Bachelor's Degree in 2011.

I began working at Rovers in early 2012 as part of an internship to gain some real-world experience in the HR field. I returned to Rovers in 2013, and assumed the role of Human Resource Manager. I have been with the company ever since, and consider myself lucky to be part of such a wonderful team!

I am a huge sports fan and am very passionate about the Portland Trailblazers. I grew up idolizing Clyde, Terry, Jerome and the rest of the Blazers and have followed them closely through the years (even the bad ones). I love to enjoy the outdoors with my wife and kids so you might find us on the slopes of Mt. Hood in the winter or playing some disc golf in the summer.

Cassandra Cason

Boardman Branch Manager

I bring more than 20 years of Human Resources Management experience and a demonstrated track record of building rapidly growing business infrastructure to the table. As part of the early technology boom in the Pacific Northwest, my role as HR Director influenced the successes of $50 to $300 million dollar companies. My involvement with 5 start-ups, whether the 3 rd or 30 th employee hired, garnered the valuable and tireless work ethic I bring to Rovers Security. Since coming on board, I have experienced roles in Security, Events, HR and Field Management, moving on to my current position as Eastern Oregon Branch Manager. My commitment is to continue to solidify infrastructure and contribute to the overall expansion goals company-wide.

A rare native Oregonian, I attended Oregon State University and valiantly rival the University of Oregon Duck fans in the organization. My passion is reading biographical history, big family-style cooking, petting every dog I see, and being a proud Nana.

Ally Turner

Office Manager

I began working with R.S. Management Co. in 2007, as a communications specialist. Between all the staff and multiple job sites, it's no easy task keeping fifty mobile phones working properly. It is an ongoing duty. I’ve always been a people person, and I strive on customer relations. Therefore, needless to say, I absolutely love what I do. Prior to R.S. Management, I had several different jobs ranging from performing car maintenance to being a licensed chiropractic assistant, an auditor, and an interpreter. The list of different positions and responsibilities that I’ve been a part of is not short by any means. However, I keep going back to Customer Relations, and I pride myself in this department. Present me with a problem and I will find a solution. I am a proud wife of an entrepreneur and a mom of two amazing girls. When not working, I’m spending time with my family, reading, or gardening.

Kyle Williams

Operations Manager

I graduated high school in 2004 and began my working life by joining the U.S. Navy. I served as a parachute rigger aboard the U.S.S. Kitty Hawk (cv-63) in Yokosuka, Japan. Upon completion of my tours, I returned home to Portland, Oregon. I began work as a supervisor with an exterior building maintenance company in 2007. During that time I was responsible for 3 different crews of 4 individuals. I heard about Rovers Security from a friend in 2009, and have been with the company ever since.

I was raised in the south with strong southern values. During my time in the Navy, I learned that through teamwork, success is inevitable. One of my mottos’ is: We succeed as a team or we fail as a team. Adaptability and being able to overcome obstacles is one of my strong points, and is a necessity to work at Rovers Security. No matter how unique our clients’ needs are, we will succeed through our teamwork and communication.

Paul Palmer

Assistant Manager

I started with Rovers in March of 2012. I have worked most of our corporate sites and events. In October of 2015, I was asked if I would join our Supervisor team. I gladly accepted and have worked as a supervisor for both our corporate sites and events. I recently accepted a new challenge with the company, becoming Assistant Field Manager, and look forward to the adventure ahead of me.

I have had many jobs over the years; from retail sales, to driving truck across the United States. Every job has had its challenges, both good and bad. Rovers is one of the few companies I have worked for that I feel is more than just a job. I am grateful for having the opportunity to work for and grow with them.

Paul Monroe

Assistant Manager

I've lived in Oregon my entire life. After I graduated high school in 2008 I had various jobs before joining Rovers in 2013. I heard about them from a friend who worked for Rovers and knew that I had an interest in working security. After working corporate sites for several years I became a supervisor in 2016. I have enjoyed my time here and have gained a lot of valuable experience. Outside of work I am a pretty big sports nerd. I'm a huge fan of the Blazers and Ducks. Still waiting for a championship. I love playing basketball and I'm able to play at open gyms a couple of times per week.

Zach Christensen

Assistant Manager

I was born in Pendleton, Oregon; “Let ‘er Buck!” Shortly after I was born, my family moved to the neighboring town of Hermiston where I lived out my childhood until middle school when we moved to Stanfield, Oregon. Stanfield is a one-stoplight, everyone knows everyone, quad-riding in the middle of the road, and donkeys are vehicles kinda town. I worked retail for about three years and have been in customer service for my entire work life. I came to Rovers Security from the Air Force where I was Security Forces (Military Police). I learned so much and the experience was life changing!

When I first started here at Rovers in 2016 I knew no one, but the company camaraderie quickly changed that! I started my Rovers journey working at a site out in Boardman, Oregon; working a gate where we control access. After that I moved to a patrol roving officer, and then became a supervisor. Shortly after my promotion to supervisor, I had an awesome opportunity to become a site supervisor for a brand new contract. I took the bull by the horns and gave it my best! I learned so much from that experience, and continue to learn from it. About one year later, I was promoted to Assistant Manager where I am today! I’m so thankful for everyone who’s helped me get where I am, many of them are also with this amazing company!

Danny Delmar

Supervisor

I am 31 years old I am from Kelso Washington. I started with the company on March 13th 2018. I started with the company because it was a good job opportunity something different and I absolutely love my job. I was recently promoted to Supervisor. I have 2 children a boy and a girl. I guess I enjoy being a security guard because I’m good at the job, and am always alert about my surroundings at every job site.
