Vancouver USA Port CEO Todd Coleman Resigns

Todd Coleman is stepping down as chief executive of the Port of Vancouver USA on May 19. He joined the port as facilities manager in 2001, was promoted to deputy executive director in 2005 and named CEO in 2012.

"I believe everyone has a season," said Mr. Coleman. "I committed to leading this amazing organization for four years, and we’ve accomplished so much in that time. We’re on a great trajectory, and we have talented people and the right assets in place to continue achieving great things for our port and community."

"Todd is an incredible leader," said Port Commission President Jerry Oliver. "He’s been a tireless advocate for the Port of Vancouver, our industry and the community. We will miss him greatly and wish him all the best."

Mr. Coleman plans to spend time with his family this summer before seeking a new opportunity.

The Board of Commissioners will appoint an interim CEO while the port moves through the hiring process.
