Every week, CONSOL Energy Inc features one employee, who for one reason or another, stands out in the crowd. It is no surprise that the leader and founder of CER was selected for this week's article. See below to learn of his heroic tale of greatness and rise to power.
Jason Stewart has been a CONSOL employee for 5 years. He earned his Master’s Degree in Plant and Soil Science from WVU.
Jason’s current role with CONSOL is Production Coordinator with the Gas division. He’s responsible for upholding CONSOL’s five core values while maximizing oil and gas production across a nine county region in northern West Virginia. His duties include contractor supervision, interaction with regulatory agencies, and coordination with intercompany departments. In this role, Jason does a lot of traveling and enjoys seeing a broad section of the State (of WV) and meeting different people from Kingwood to Parkersburg. He enjoys seeing the people whom he supervises go home safely at the end of every day.
If you are in the Morgantown area, Jason recommends stopping by Oliverios.
Jason is responsible for starting CONSOL Energy Racing (CER). He pitched the idea last year to Kent Wright and Cathy St. Clair. They agreed to sponsor a team of six athletes, all current or former CONSOL employees or family members, to do triathlons, duathlons, 5K’s, 10K’s, marathons, half-marathons, and bike races. By the end of 2012 his team had participated in almost 50 events across West Virginia, Virginia, Maryland, Pennsylvania, and Ohio. They swam, ran, and biked their way across more than a thousand miles; they won series titles, overall individual races, and age group titles. CONSOL athletes were seem by countless spectators and race participants and stood on podiums in the mid-Atlantic region basically every weekend.
CONSOL has agreed to sponsor their race team in 2013. Below is a proof for the jersey that they will be wearing this season. The crossed pick and shovel logo is meant to be a tribute to the miners who have built this company and this country. It will be included in some form on everything they wear and it will be showcased on podiums up and down the East Coast this year!
A big thanks to Jason for educating us on CER and for sharing what this entails! Good luck to you and your team in the 2013 season.
Awesome, now all the WVMBA riders are going to laugh at me when they pass me this year. I hope they dont institute a penalty for getting lapped.
