What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can own purchasing and logistics end-to-end—negotiating with suppliers, planning delivery and legal transport requirements, and improving service performance through clear organization, analytical decisions, and strong communication.

I’m a Purchase and Logistics Manager with a long track record of securing the right materials for production and administration through careful sourcing and strong supplier relationships across Europe. I negotiate prices, annual turnover-based discounts, and deadlines while continuously monitoring supplier quality and maintaining dependable business communication.

I also own end-to-end logistics execution—organizing deliveries of long masts across Europe, managing country-specific transport legal requirements, and resolving technical and commercial issues. Alongside this, I ensure transport readiness for a fleet of 20 cars and trucks and coordinate spare-parts transport for aftersales service, bringing structure, planning, and analytical decision-making to day-to-day operations.
