Donaldson enters into a new position within the Seatronics Group management structure, reporting directly to the Seatronics Group managing director, Phil Middleton. Donaldson and Middleton will together support regional vice presidents in managing and developing the global Seatronics business.

Donaldson will be based in Singapore and will continue to manage the regional office, while maintaining a global presence.

Donaldson studied mechanical engineering at Napier University in Edinburgh, UK. After completing a remotely operated vehicle (ROV) pilot training scheme, Donaldson later became an ROV professional involved in a number of challenging projects ranging from the shallow, low visibility waters of the Southern North Sea to the ultra deep waters of Brazil.

A move onshore saw Donaldson transition into a sales position with Sonardyne, where he quickly progressed to the position of vice president, responsible for the Europe and Africa regions. Joining Seatronics Pte Ltd. in 2007 as vice president Asia Pacific, Donaldson has successfully grown the base and business capability in the region.
