“They are instrumental in representing our key interests to keep our business thriving,” he says.
CONSOL is also a member of
the Baltimore Port Alliance (BPA),
the nonprofit group of maritime businesses dedicated to addressing the needs and interests of those who make their living and support their families through maritime commerce.
As the BPA’s vice chair, Mangin’s role is to support the chair and lead in his absence. He also works on monthly agendas, assisting their education, environmental outreach and communication committees.
Unlike many in the maritime industry, Mangin does not have forebears in the business. He says the industry found him: “My son is
a fan of the Pittsburgh Penguins, whose arena was named CONSOL Energy Arena. As a treat, I found a friend who worked in the company and got us tickets to a Penguins game in the corporate suite. As it turns out, months later, the director position
for the Baltimore Terminal became available and my friend helped me get my foot in the door for an interview.”
At that time, Mangin had recently retired from the Army, where he had spent his career as an infantry officer after graduating from West Point. He was teaching leadership at Princeton University when this position came up, and he was quick to take the opportu- nity. “It’s a lot more responsibility and I enjoy leading people,” he says. “It’s so rewarding because of the people I work with who lead and run it. It’s one of the finest jobs I’ve ever had.”
Mangin recently moved from Baltimore’s Canton neighborhood to Middle River in Baltimore County. “As much as I enjoyed the city and its amenities,” he says, “I’m looking forward to getting to know the new neighbors and taking advantage of everything the area has to offer.”
