Zeaborn Ship Management, which has announced plans to grow its fleet, has appointed Rob Grool as its chief executive, to take over from interim CEO Holger Strack.
Mr Grool has been in the industry for nearly 40 years, most recently at Vroon Group, which he left in January. Prior to that he was president of ship management for Seaspan for three years, after nine years as group managing director for Wallem Group.
“With the appointment of Rob Grool, we are very excited to have found an internationally renowned executive for our company’s top management,” said Jan-Hendrik Többe and Ove Meyer, Zeaborn’s managing partners.
