CLdN operates integrated logistics across three verticals—RoRo vessel shipping (30+ ships, 200+ weekly sailings), cargo services (4,500 trailers), and port infrastructure—serving Northern Europe. The hiring mix is HR-heavy (6 roles) with sparse engineering (2 roles), reflecting an operational business scaling recruitment and process infrastructure rather than product development; the tech stack is Excel + Power BI + SQL, signaling analytics-driven but not platform-centric operations.
CLdN is one of Europe's leading multimodal logistics providers, headquartered in Luxembourg with over 3,000 employees across the Netherlands, Belgium, and the United Kingdom. The company operates three vertically integrated divisions: CLdN RoRo runs a fleet of 30+ modern roll-on/roll-off vessels with more than 200 sailings per week connecting ports in Zeebrugge, Rotterdam, London, Killingholme, Liverpool, Dublin, Cork, Gothenburg, Esbjerg, Santander, and Porto; CLdN Cargo manages 4,500 trailers and 45ft containers for door-to-door services including full-load transport, freight forwarding, and freight management; CLdN Ports owns and operates RoRo port terminals in England, the Netherlands, and Belgium. Founded in 1929, the group serves customers across Northern Europe.
Excel, Power BI, Python, SQL, Microsoft 365, SharePoint, Microsoft Office, Microsoft Access, Outlook, AFAS, XML, and SFTP. The stack emphasizes analytics (Power BI) and data querying (SQL, Python) alongside standard Microsoft enterprise tools.
Active projects include real-time fleet inefficiency monitoring, emission reporting compliance, vessel hull inspection prioritization, HR process professionalization, and recruitment optimization. Cost monitoring, transport execution, and greenhouse gas reduction appear as recurrent pain points.
