What I'm looking for

I’m seeking a remote role where I can apply my experience in operations, supply chain, procurement, inventory and customer service. I enjoy solving problems, improving processes and taking ownership of day-to-day operations, while using digital and AI tools to work smarter and contribute to a forward-thinking team.

At Non-Ferrous Metal Works SA (Pty) Ltd, I progressed from Storeman & Inventory Controller through sales and procurement roles to Branch Manager. As Branch Manager, I held end-to-end responsibility for the Port Elizabeth branch, including operations, sales, purchasing, supply chain and logistics.

I managed staff, supplier and customer relationships, stock, reporting and workplace safety, and implemented practical procedures and workflow improvements. I also used Microsoft Dynamics AX and AI tools for research, analysis, documentation and business projects.
