Cristian Marian Rucsanda

I build procurement functions that hold up under real pressure - multi-million-euro budgets, multi-country operations, and stakeholders who need answers fast.

Over the past 7+ years I've worked across financial services and iGaming - from tactical buying and sourcing at UBS in Switzerland, to procurement services at Betsson Group, to building Silverspin's procurement function from the ground up. Along the way I've:

- Reduced supplier onboarding cycle time by 20% at Betsson Group

- Delivered a 30% efficiency improvement in tactical buying workflows at UBS, while supporting 50+ stakeholders at a 95% satisfaction rating

- Built a centralized contract governance system from scratch at Silverspin, giving Procurement and Finance real visibility for the first time

I'm SAP Certified in Ariba Integration, and hands-on across Jaggaer, ServiceNow, Jira, and SharePoint - the platforms that actually run a modern procurement function, not just the theory of one.

What I care about is turning procurement from a bottleneck into something Finance, Legal, and IT actually trust - clear supplier governance, contracts that don't get lost, and purchasing processes people can follow without a manual.

Fluent in English, Spanish, and Romanian, with working French. Based in Malta, and open to procurement and vendor management roles that are hybrid or fully remote - I've spent years supporting stakeholders across borders and time zones, so distributed teams aren't a stretch for me, they're where I already work.

Always open to a conversation - feel free to reach out.
