Supply Chain Manager driving strategic sourcing, inventory control, and resilient, cost-effective operations.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Supply Chain and Procurement leader with experience managing end-to-end materials, sourcing, inventory, and supplier strategies in multinational, high-volume environments. I focus on just-in-time deliveries and supply chain continuity through transparent, disciplined processes and strong cross-functional execution.
At Amazon Mexico, I led end-to-end materials management and sourcing by evaluating supplier operational environments and using cost models, benchmarking, and SAP-based procurement processes. I developed short- and long-term sourcing initiatives aligned with supply chain strategy, supporting documented cost savings while maintaining budget and inventory requirements.
I’m known for balancing operational execution with strategic decision-making—overseeing daily planning, warehouse, and buyer operations, implementing 12-week demand forecast processes, and coordinating with Finance on inventory carrying costs. My impact includes 20% cost reduction in category procurement area annually, 10% improvement in inventory accuracy and material availability, and 60% enhancement in delivery time at import/export process.
