What I'm looking for

Seeking a challenging role that leverages my expertise in process improvement and supply chain management to drive efficiency and profitability.

As a seasoned professional with over two decades of experience, I specialize in driving operational excellence through strategic process improvements and effective supply chain management. My journey began in engineering, where I developed a strong foundation in quality assurance and project management. Over the years, I have successfully led various teams to achieve significant cost reductions and efficiency improvements across multiple industries.

In my current role as a Consultant at Suptech (Z) Ltd, I help SMEs optimize their operations and implement robust supply chain systems. Previously, as General Manager at Zambia Kasumbalesa Venture Company Ltd, I managed a high-volume border crossing facility, improving profitability by 20% through process automation and enhanced supply chain security. My expertise extends to implementing ISO standards, managing large-scale projects, and leveraging data analytics for informed decision-making.

I hold an MBA from the University of Illinois and various certifications in Six Sigma, Lean, and Scrum. I am passionate about continuous learning and applying best practices to deliver measurable results. My approach combines technical skills with strategic insights to drive sustainable business growth and operational efficiency.
