@gabrielgaraizargonza
Category Buyer and procurement professional specializing in batteries, projects, and inventory operations across industrial supply chains.
SpainWhat I'm looking for
I work as a Category Buyer focused on “Integraciones, Proyectos, Baterías,” handling procurement activities with a strong operational mindset. I’ve built my expertise across multiple industrial environments, including TECOEL and Vaillant-Group, consistently supporting purchasing flow, order follow-up, and day-to-day coordination.
My background combines technical training in “Desarrollo de Productos Electrónicos” with practical supply-chain work—planner buying, “Resp. de Compras,” “Resp. de Compras y Almacén,” and “Recepción de Materiales.” I’m comfortable using ERP tools like SAP (MM), BAAN, InfoERP, and InfoLN, and I value accuracy, responsiveness, and process improvement to keep stock and deliveries aligned with project needs.
