I lead enterprise IT sourcing, contract negotiations, and supplier transformations across complex global spend portfolios.
United StatesWhat I'm looking for
I'm currently supporting UnitedHealth Group with category strategies, sourcing events, supplier negotiations, contract governance, and M&A supplier due diligence. I help align supplier strategy with revenue growth, risk mitigation, cost reduction, and enterprise transformation objectives.
At Chubb, I led enterprise IT infrastructure sourcing across mainframe technologies, data center operations, compute, storage, networks, telecom, enterprise software, and IT services. I managed end-to-end RFP/RFQ processes, commercial negotiations, supplier optimization, and contract execution while strengthening procurement governance and supplier performance.
Across Cognizant, Infosys, Morgan Stanley, and Becton Dickinson, I've managed high-value IT procurement, SaaS and software licensing, outsourcing, P2P, and vendor-management programs. At Becton Dickinson, I led 25 procurement professionals managing more than $200 million in IT spend and delivered over $20 million in cost savings.
Earlier at ATOS, I led 45 procurement professionals across India, MEA, and APAC and managed a $750 million IT and non-IT procurement portfolio. I've built scalable procurement operating models, automated processes, negotiated complex MSAs and SOWs, and improved supplier performance across global organizations.
