Hansyana Govinden
@hansyanagovinden
Senior procurement and contract professional focused on cost optimization and vendor enablement.
What I'm looking for
I bring senior-level experience across procurement, asset, and commercial contract management, with a strong focus on driving savings, continuity of supply, and compliant contracting. I support complex pricing, contract lifecycle workflows, and procurement strategies that balance cost, quality, and delivery.
In recent roles, I maintained contract and asset portfolios, managed vendor performance, and supported asset lifecycle decisions such as review, renewal, and retirement. I also acted as a local escalation point for contract lifecycle management, responded to pricing referrals using CPQ, and helped sales teams secure approved pricing while managing deviations and governance.
Previously, I executed strategic sourcing and e-auctions, including category analysis, supplier onboarding and enablement, and supplier relationship development. I’ve delivered measurable outcomes (including USD savings and ongoing automation of sourcing line items) while continuously improving processes and supporting training—from newcomers to sales communities—so teams can run procurement confidently and consistently.
