Arctic Directory: Crowley names Cosgrove VP of marine operations

Crowley Maritime Corp. said July 25 that Cole Cosgrove has assumed the role of vice president of marine operations for Crowley’s liner services groups. Cosgrove will continue to work out of the company’s Jacksonville office while reporting to John Hourihan, senior vice president and general manager, Latin America services, and John Douglass, senior vice president and general manager, Puerto Rico and Caribbean services.

In his new position, Cosgrove is responsible for the marine operations of Crowley’s Puerto Rico and Caribbean services fleet of four vessels serving the Bahamas, the Eastern Caribbean and the Caribbean basin as well as the Central American fleet of eight to 10 vessels serving the Dominican Republic, Haiti, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Panama, Honduras, El Salvador and Guatemala. Management of these vessels involves everything from operations, to vessel crewing and training, to identifying and implementing new technologies for improved overall performance. Cosgrove held a similar role in 2002 for the Puerto Rico and Caribbean services team. Cosgrove, who most recently held the role of vice president of the Safety, Security, Quality and Environmental department, has replaced Michael Hopkins, who in retirement has transitioned into a part-time role as a consultant for Crowley.
