What I'm looking for

I am seeking a senior supply-chain role where I can lead procurement, optimize inventory and logistics, drive cost savings, and work within a collaborative, processes-driven organization that values compliance and continuous improvement.

I am a Supply Chain Management professional with over fifteen years of experience in procurement, materials management, inventory control and logistics across manufacturing and logistics industries.

As Deputy Manager - SCM at AVO Carbon India Pvt Ltd, I generate material requirement plans, issue purchase orders, track inventory in ERP, monitor reorder levels and drive cost optimization while ensuring compliance with customs, excise and other statutory regulations.

Previously I managed key accounts and air export operations at DSV Air & Sea and coordinated logistics and transport solutions at Kuehne+Nagel and Kintetsu World Express, handling documentation, rate negotiations, shipment tracking and customer communication.

I deliver results through strong problem solving, negotiation, communication and people management skills, preparing MIS reports and procurement budgets to ensure timely, cost-effective supply chain execution.
