Active reader, runner and secret table tennis talent
While everyone works very hard, there’s always time for a nice little chat or two, and a walk in the sun.
Sam grew up in Hamilton. He moved to Wellington for university and loves the ability to get anywhere just by walking, but often still misses the flatter Waikato and its foggy winter mornings.
As a kid, Sam wanted to be a pilot. His first job was as a summer casual at a sawmill for two summers at the start of uni. He studied at Victoria University of Wellington, completing a BA in Psychology and Sociology and then Honours in Sociology. During and after his studies he worked in retail at Rebel Sport. ComplyWith is Sam’s first role fully out of university.
As Coordinator, Customer Experience, Sam is part of the team that makes sure our customers get the most out of ComplyWith. He supports customers day to day, from answering questions and helping new users get started to keeping things running smoothly behind the scenes.
Sam enjoys the ComplyWith team culture, where everyone works hard but there’s always time for a chat and a walk in the sun.
Sam calls himself an “active reader”: a keen reader who isn’t great at sitting still. He’ll often finish a book in a day, preferably outside if the weather’s good. When he’s not reading, he’s running with his club each week, mountain biking, or skiing when he gets the chance. He’s also trying to get back into tennis. He has recently got into cryptic crosswords, still does his daily Wordle, and bakes the odd batch of cookies. He’s also sneakily good at table tennis.
“It was great growing up in Hamilton! It’s so central so we could head for the day mountain biking in Rotorua, or the beach at Waihi, even skiing at Ruapehu. I now live in Wellington, and I love how easy it is getting around inside the city.”
