Dedicated supply chain professional with expertise in procurement and logistics.
What I'm looking for
I am a passionate supply chain professional with extensive experience in procurement, logistics, and warehouse management. My journey began with a solid educational foundation, earning a Bachelor's degree in Business Management with a focus on Purchasing and Supplies. Over the years, I have honed my skills in various roles, including Procurement Associate and Onsite Supervisor, where I successfully managed teams and streamlined operations.
At Stratostaff East Africa Ltd, I currently oversee staff performance and cargo handling processes, ensuring compliance and efficiency in all operations. My previous roles at Population Services Kenya allowed me to develop strong financial acumen, where I reconciled customer accounts and processed VAT refunds. I take pride in my ability to negotiate with suppliers and implement cost-saving strategies that benefit the organization.
Driven by a commitment to professionalism and client satisfaction, I thrive in challenging environments where I can expand my skills and contribute to organizational success. I am eager to leverage my expertise in a dynamic team that values innovation and growth.
