At Austal Defence Shipbuilding Australia, I lead category strategy, sourcing and end-to-end contracting across production equipment, critical spares, engineering services and operational support. I took a €7.6M automated production-line contract from sourcing strategy through negotiation, execution, testing and delivery.
I work with Contract Owners and technical stakeholders to define requirements, improve scope quality and align evaluations with Engineering, Quality, HSE, Logistics and Project Delivery. I also support commercial decisions through negotiation, risk review and post-award supplier performance.
At Roy Hill, I led MRO planning, procurement, supplier performance, inventory, warehousing and logistics in support of maintenance and production. At BHP, I developed MRO and critical-spares strategies, including vendor-managed inventory and approaches to reduce excess stock.
Earlier, at Schlumberger, I delivered approximately $400K in savings and reduced third-party expenditure by approximately 15%. I also improved inventory accuracy from 70% to 95% and reduced inventory by approximately 10% through traceability, redistribution and MRO optimisation.
