He spent his early career at the Port of Melbourne, initially as an engineer, then worked through various roles to become head of commercial operations.
Mr James was an important part of Patrick Corporation executive team from 1994 until 2006 with his last position as director ports and had a close-up view of the dramatic events of April 1998.
