What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a procurement-focused role where I can apply demand forecasting, vendor management, and contract negotiation to improve purchasing efficiency, ensure on-time deliveries, and support stronger financial outcomes through accurate reporting.

I’m a Purchasing Assistant focused on using demand forecasting, vendor management, and contract negotiation to streamline procurement operations and help ensure timely delivery of goods—strengthening the company’s bottom line.

In my current role, I create purchase orders, support vendor accreditation, and monitor delivery schedules. I also partner with reliable vendors, develop negotiation strategies to secure optimal terms, and forecast price and market trends to spot changes in the buyer–supplier balance.

Previously, I supported purchasing and accounting workflows at a hotel by contacting suppliers for item and price quotes, maintaining supplier files, and handling records like purchase details, inventory, and delivery information. I’ve also managed tasks across accounts payable/receivable areas, including verifying invoices and purchase orders, maintaining outstanding payables, preparing bills and bank deposits, and supporting timely disbursement through careful tracking and follow-ups.
