What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can lead end-to-end vendor management and procurement operations, strengthen supplier performance and compliance, and drive continuous process improvements that improve KPIs, audit readiness, and timely resolution of vendor concerns.

I’m a procurement and vendor management professional with 10 years of experience across sourcing, vendor accreditation, procurement operations, vendor performance management, and vendor issues management across retail, food, and heavy equipment industries. In my current role, I lead the day-to-day Vendor Management Program work—handling vendor accreditation, renewal processing, performance evaluation, and escalations—while supporting business continuity and audit readiness.

From 2019 to 2023 as a Purchasing/VMP Associate, I managed procurement activities end-to-end: I sourced and evaluated suppliers, negotiated commercial terms (pricing, payment terms, warranty), processed Purchase Orders in SAP, and supported vendor accreditation and performance reviews. I also strengthened cross-functional alignment by coordinating with end-users on order and delivery status, and I apply continuous process improvement to enhance efficiency, KPI achievement, and regulatory compliance.
