What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that offers growth opportunities and values collaboration in logistics and supply chain management.

I am a results-driven Transport and Logistics Coordinator with over 3 years of experience in optimizing transport operations and managing third-party logistics providers. My expertise lies in ensuring compliance with international supply chain standards while developing cost-saving strategies. I am certified in supply chain analysis and logistics management, which has equipped me with the skills necessary for cross-functional collaboration and data analysis.

In my current role at Cadbury Nigeria PLC, I manage end-to-end logistics and transport operations for both national and cross-border shipments. I utilize tools like Excel and TMS platforms to enhance route planning and efficiency, contributing to measurable improvements in delivery timelines and cost reductions. My previous experience as a Business Development Officer has further honed my analytical skills and ability to develop growth strategies.

I am actively seeking international remote opportunities in logistics, supply chain coordination, or operations management, where I can leverage my skills to drive operational excellence and contribute to organizational success.
