@collinsnweke
I cut procurement costs through strategic sourcing, supplier management, and contract negotiation.
What I'm looking for
At Elektron Energy, I source materials and services across multiple entities and manage contracts from end to end. Previously at HealthPlus, I redesigned pharmaceutical sourcing to buy directly from manufacturers, reducing acquisition costs while protecting product quality.
I've built procurement, inventory, warehouse, and supply-chain operations across energy, pharmaceutical, luxury retail, food manufacturing, and industrial environments. My work includes uncovering over USD 200,000 in luxury inventory at risk of loss, developing warehouse SOPs, and maintaining material plans that keep production supplied.
