Singapore-headquartered SeaTrek, a prominent dry bulk operator, has announced a significant reshuffle in its leadership team as it embarks on a new phase of growth. The company has appointed Rob Aarvold as Global Chief Executive Officer, with Anthony Diamante taking on the role of Director of Business Development and Derivatives, and Bryan Swindoll as Director of Commercial. These appointments aim to bolster SeaTrek’s global reach and reinforce its commitment to customer-centric operations.
Rob Aarvold, a seasoned maritime leader, brings extensive experience in liner, multi-purpose, and bulk shipping. His expertise in unitised and geared shipping is expected to be pivotal in steering SeaTrek’s future success. “I am honoured to lead SeaTrek during this pivotal phase of its development,” Aarvold stated, emphasising the company’s dedication to delivering reliable and efficient freight solutions.
Founded over two decades ago by Asifur Chowdhury, SeaTrek has evolved from a family-owned business into a global operator.
