Donald Baan

Chief Operating Officer at Shipping Technology

Why is Donald a friend of PofO's?


"I have been active in the port of Rotterdam throughout my entire working life. Ships, cargo and people from all corners of the globe find their way here. That international character, the diversity and variety, greatly appeal to me. It energizes the port with new ideas and inspiration. The port is a magnificent work area with many exciting challenges. It offers opportunities for anyone willing to roll up their sleeves. That's why I'm a strong supporter of the Port of Opportunities initiative.

I believe that everyone can make a difference and that everyone should be given the opportunity to contribute their part. We need all talents to ensure that this magnificent port remains such an important hub for ships, goods and people in the future. Port people don't think in terms of boundaries; the world is our playground. Let's use that mindset also towards recruitment of employees and offer people with an international background the opportunity to build a bright future here!"
