Peter T. Leach | Jan 13, 2011 3:00PM GMT. The Journal of Commerce Online - News Story. New role adds Cuba services to Caribbean unit. Crowley Maritime named Tony Otero vice president of the Dominican Republic, Haiti and Cuba liner services.

Otero's new role includes the addition of Cuba services to what had been the company's Dominican Republic and Haiti services.

He will be responsible for the coordination of the countries' sales, marketing, and operations activities; overseeing the development of policies and procedures; reviewing operating results; establishing annual revenue and capital and budgets; coordinating and negotiating contractor and service provider agreements and developing business relations.

Otero will also implement Crowley's planned Ro/Ro service enhancements to the countries. As a bilingual, English-Spanish, communicator he is well suited to serve the needs of customers in the trades.

Otero will remain domiciled in the company's Jacksonville office and report to John Hourihan, senior vice president and general manager of Latin America services.

Otero started his career as a senior accountant at Crowley in 1998 after working several years for the accounting firm, Deloitte & Touche. He has held several different positions of increasing responsibility, including accounting manager, finance director and, most recently vice president, finance and planning for the liner and logistics business units.
