I’m a procurement and supply chain professional improving purchasing through compliant analytics.
What I'm looking for
I’m a procurement and supply chain professional with a BSc in Business Administration (Banking & Finance) and over 4 years of experience supporting purchasing, financial operations, and analysis. I focus on processing purchase orders, coordinating suppliers, maintaining ERP records, and ensuring procurement policy compliance.
My analytical strength comes from work as a Financial Markets Analyst (Freelance), where I generated insights on pricing and supply risk and produced detailed market and economic reports. I apply this perspective to demand, market, and cost analysis—especially when linking commodity supply-and-demand dynamics to raw material pricing for local purchasing.
I’m currently pursuing CIPS/CPSP-K certification and continuing to build my ERP systems and advanced Excel capability for procurement analytics. I bring accuracy, documentation discipline, and attention to detail to every purchase and reconciliation task.
