What I'm looking for
I am a dynamic procurement leader with experience managing end-to-end strategic sourcing for Direct materials and medical devices, and leading complex contract negotiations including MSAs, Product Schedules and SLAs. I have driven regional sourcing programs across EMEA and APAC, partnered with Global Category Managers and site leads to align local requirements with global strategies, and embedded sustainability and GxP-compliant risk controls into sourcing.
I have progressed through buyer and sourcing roles in retail, FMCG and fintech, delivering cost savings, supplier performance improvements and process standardization using tools like Coupa and Oracle. I excel at stakeholder alignment, commercial and legal negotiations, and translating market intelligence into sourcing strategy to secure supply and reduce corporate risk.
