What I'm looking for

I am seeking a role that allows me to leverage my procurement expertise in a dynamic environment, focusing on strategic initiatives and compliance.

I am a procurement, finance, and project management professional with over 10 years of experience in international organizations and donor-funded projects. My expertise lies in procurement, contract administration, and vendor management, ensuring compliance with rules, regulations, and best practices. I possess strong financial acumen in budget management, financial reporting, and donor compliance, including budget tracking, payment processing, and fund allocation.

In my current role as a Procurement Manager at DAI Global, I oversee the full procurement cycle, ensuring compliance with Federal Acquisition Regulations and USAID procurement policies. I have developed and issued solicitations for goods and services, evaluated bids, and negotiated contracts, all while maintaining integrity and transparency in procurement processes. My previous experience as a Procurement Analyst at UNDP has equipped me with the skills to implement effective internal controls and manage procurement activities in compliance with UN regulations.
