What I'm looking for
I am a procurement analyst with hands-on experience managing IT invoices, vendor relationships, and procurement processes to align technology spend with strategic business objectives. I deliver analytical insights and executive-ready narratives, support CapEx/OpEx reporting, and help design and implement IT systems and process improvements to increase transparency and accountability.
Previously, I coordinated implementations, managed logistics and vendor onboarding, and supported legal teams as a paralegal producing briefs and managing case files. I combine strong vendor procurement, workflow optimization, and cross-functional coordination skills to drive cost control and operational efficiency.
