Procurement & supply chain intelligence manager delivering data-driven strategic sourcing for Fortune 500 clients.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Procurement & Supply Chain Intelligence Manager at The Smart Cube (WNS Global Services), where I lead procurement intelligence projects for Fortune 500 US & European clients across Aerospace & Defence, Marine, and Industrial sectors. I design and execute RFx (RFI/RFP) strategies that enable data-driven supplier selection and sourcing decisions, and I build supplier intelligence frameworks, cost benchmarks, and risk assessments to strengthen category strategies.
Previously as an Assistant Manager in Procurement Intelligence, I delivered strategic sourcing advisory and category intelligence, leading supplier benchmarking, market entry strategy, and competitive analysis engagements. Earlier, as a Senior Analyst/Analyst, I executed market research, supplier intelligence, and due diligence, building category intelligence reports across spend, supplier landscape, and sourcing best practices, and designing RFI frameworks and competitive benchmarking models.
I combine rigorous research with analytics—developing procurement dashboards using Power BI/Excel and applying AI-assisted research workflows and workflow optimization to improve speed and clarity. I’m recognized through awards such as Smart Team Award (2023) and High Honours with multiple commendations, and I bring a structured approach through Six Sigma Green Belt and an MBA in International Business.
