@claudiaszepe
Supply chain and procurement leader specializing in crisis management.
What I'm looking for
I am a supply chain and procurement professional with 15+ years of experience delivering resilience and continuity in global matrix organizations such as Bosch, GE and Univar. I specialize in crisis and incident management, risk mitigation and stakeholder alignment, with proven results reducing customer loss and improving satisfaction through pragmatic recovery strategies and SAP-enabled monitoring.
My career highlights include leading cross-regional responses to major disruptions (Red Sea shipping disruption, West Germany floods, COVID-19) and driving measurable service improvements—zero customer line stoppages in one crisis and a 35% increase in customer coverage in another. I bring strategic problem solving, SAP and analytics capabilities, and collaborative leadership across multicultural teams to ensure operational excellence under pressure.
