Angola
Message

At Ultikary-Comércio e Indústria, I direct daily operations and company resources, advise the chairman and board, and guide the company’s strategic direction. I helped transform Ultikary from a startup into a top 20 national procurement firm supplying oil and gas products and equipment in Angola.

I developed marketing strategies that increased sales and implemented initiatives to drive revenue and reduce operating costs while maintaining product quality. I also uphold service quality, customer support, and delivery in line with service level agreements.

Previously, at AIS (Angola Integrated Services), I managed procurement, logistics, and warehouse operations supporting onshore and offshore work, using SAP to maintain purchasing and delivery records. At Nestlé, Angola, I implemented the P2P process with the Kenya headquarters and helped move procurement auditing from the red zone to the green zone.
