What I'm looking for

I seek senior roles driving supply chain transformation and continuous improvement in regulated pharma, focused on cross-functional impact, digital enablement, and measurable performance gains.

I am a supply chain transformation lead with 13+ years' pharmaceuticals experience, trusted to lead large-scale improvement projects and deliver governance, performance and digital frameworks while maintaining compliance and service levels. I have a track record of designing and scaling operational models that improved performance visibility and reduced lead times and waste.

At Vertex I improved on-time delivery from 91% to 97.5%, delivered annual savings of €300k via a digital perfect order dashboard, and established EDI-connected warehousing and vendor governance frameworks. I bring strong cross-functional leadership, hands-on operational expertise, and a data-driven approach to continuous improvement.
