What I'm looking for

I’m looking for international business development or operations work with an export angle—where I can own pricing and technical feasibility, run process-driven workflows, and support compliance and project execution.

I’m a mining engineer who transitioned to the commercial side of industry—and stayed there. I read technical details myself before making the call, turning process feasibility into faster, accurate quotes and better outcomes.

Now I’m Operations Manager at Bekstone, a natural stone production and export startup — owning quarry sourcing, production operations, customer relations, and export setup. Previously at PROTA Technology Manufacturing Center I rebuilt quoting from the ground up, cutting multi-process costing from days to ~15 minutes across 320+ RFQs, and helped operationalize a €5M EU-funded facility through audit-ready SOPs.
