What I'm looking for

I seek a senior supply chain or procurement role where I can drive cost savings, vendor development, and process improvements in manufacturing or automotive environments.

I am a strategic supply chain and procurement professional with over two decades of experience in automotive and manufacturing sectors, including roles in purchasing, vendor development, inventory and warehouse management.

I have led cross-functional teams, implemented cost-optimization initiatives (VA/VE, packaging and transportation optimization), and consolidated vendor bases to improve margins and operational efficiency.

My technical strengths include SAP S4 HANA (PP & MM), Lean Six Sigma Black Belt methodologies, export operations, and international trade compliance, supported by hands-on experience with plastics, rubber, sheet metal, springs, adhesives and chemicals.

I am results-driven, strong in negotiation and stakeholder management, and committed to continuous improvement and driving measurable supply chain performance gains.
