TeamNorthport, led by Norzalinda Mohamed, General Manager of Human Capital Division, alongside several Northport employees, attended the programme. Employees from different scopes of services, including the Shift Operations Manager, Marine Pilot and Prime Mover Driver, took the stage to share their day-to-day jobs, career journeys and benefits of working at Northport to inspire the students.

During the programme, Norzalinda also presented a cheque to Mariati Abdullah, the Principal of SMKBBSS. The contribution was intended to be used for the development of school infrastructure for Teaching and Learning process.

SMKBBSS is the nearest secondary school to Northport, and it has been a partner in Northport’s community initiatives. Last year, a similar programme was organised for the previous batch of SPM students from SMKBBSS. Moving forward, Northport plans to extend this programme to other schools in the Klang area, reinforcing its commitment to educational outreach.

Northport’s career talk programme is one of the initiatives aimed at nurturing the local community, particularly the younger generation. The programme also provides valuable insights and guidance to students aspiring to pursue careers in the port sector.
