Catherine King

With over 20 years of experience in procurement and inventory management, I have honed my skills in negotiation, budgeting, and financial analysis within the manufacturing sector. My journey has equipped me with a profound understanding of inventory techniques, cycle counts, and end-of-year physical inventory processes. I pride myself on being detail-oriented and possess excellent communication skills, which have been instrumental in building strong relationships with both internal teams and external suppliers.

In my most recent role as an Inventory Control Analyst Manager at Transglobal, I successfully managed materials for three manufacturing facilities with a run rate of $1.2 million per year. My responsibilities included reviewing contracts, negotiating pricing, and ensuring timely accuracy of orders and purchase orders. I also played a key role in planning and executing data collection to determine business needs, while supporting accounting and operations as needed. My experience as an ISO auditor further underscores my commitment to maintaining high standards in safety and operational efficiency.

Throughout my career, I have demonstrated my ability to lead teams effectively, manage procurement processes, and ensure that inventory levels align with business needs. I am passionate about continuous improvement and am always looking for ways to optimize processes and reduce costs. I am eager to bring my expertise to a new opportunity where I can contribute to a dynamic team and drive operational success.
