After serving in the Royal Australian Navy from 1990 to 1994, he was an officer in the New South Wales (Australia) Police Department for nearly a decade. He earned a degree in law enforcement from Charles Sturt University.
As part of the promotion, Sutton replaces Steve Demeroutis, who recently retired as vice president after a long career with Crowley.
