What I'm looking for

I'm seeking a Procurement Specialist role where I can apply hands-on procurement experience, process discipline, vendor management, policy compliance, and attention to detail to deliver strong operational support.

At ipNX Nigeria Ltd., I lead procurement operations from vendor sourcing and pricing negotiations through purchase order creation, delivery tracking, quality control, and vendor performance evaluation. I also document and optimize procurement processes, manage contract records, and support inventory control, audits, and stakeholder needs.

Previously, I combined procurement and administrative responsibilities with accounts payable, receivable, reconciliations, and financial reporting at Transhaul Technologies. I am chartered with the Chartered Institute of Purchasing and Supply Management of Nigeria and I'm advancing my supply chain knowledge through an MSc in Supply Chain Management, hence, I’m seeking a Procurement Specialist role.
