Procurement & Business Performance Consultant at Lola Consultant UK Ltd, supporting cross-border sourcing and procurement projects.
What I'm looking for
At Lola Consultant UK Ltd, I provide procurement consulting support across UK, Europe, US, and Canada markets, including strategic sourcing, vendor identification, RFQ management, and tendering. I also develop procurement dashboards and reporting tools to improve visibility and performance tracking.
At Sidra Medicine, I executed sourcing initiatives across facilities management, IT, medical equipment, and clinical consumables. Competitive bidding, supplier consolidation, and contract renegotiation delivered 8–15% cost savings, and I led and mentored a team of three procurement professionals.
Earlier, as an Assistant Buyer at RasGas, I supported procurement and contracting for oil and gas projects, using SAP across the procurement process. My work has also included major medical equipment procurement, managing long-term service agreements, and supporting audits with zero major non-compliance findings.
