I drive compliant SAP procurement, strategic sourcing, and supplier performance.
South AfricaWhat I'm looking for
At Land Bank, I've led end-to-end procurement operations since 2014, sourcing, evaluating, and acquiring goods and services through SAP while aligning transactions with requisitions, Delegation of Powers, and procurement policies.
I've administered high-impact tenders, contract awards, renewals, extensions, and terminations, while onboarding B-BBEE-compliant vendors and maintaining vendor master data for reliable audit trails. My monthly spend, supplier-performance, and SAP-system reporting supports data-driven executive decisions.
Before becoming a Procurement Specialist, I spent eight years at Land Bank as a Junior Buyer, managing quotations, purchase orders, tender documentation, purchasing contracts, and urgent supplier queries. I also served as a Procurement Officer for the Gauteng Provincial Government, applying PFMA and provincial BEE requirements across competitive sourcing processes.
I'm an SAP MM Super User who trains stakeholders, resolves support tickets, corrects pricing discrepancies, and keeps procurement master data clean. My background also includes debt administration and financial reconciliations using BAS.
