What I'm looking for

I'm open to remote and international opportunities where I can lead strategic sourcing, tendering, supplier negotiations, and procurement planning in industrial or oil and gas operations.

At OPTIMA Grupa, I lead procurement and tendering for goods, services, and works across the group and its subsidiaries. I source refinery raw materials, monitor commodity markets, coordinate procurement planning, and serve as Deputy Chairman of the Tender Committee.

I've built 14+ years of procurement, import/export, and logistics experience in industrial and oil and gas environments, managing 500+ suppliers and preparing or reviewing 1,000+ contracts. I negotiate commercial terms, improve procurement efficiency, and coordinate international sourcing and transport.
