I coordinate procurement, imports, suppliers, and inventory operations across two locations.
What I'm looking for
At John Fernandes Limited, I supervise inventory activities across two locations, lead a nine-person team, and coordinate purchasing and import processes with Accounts, Brokerage, management, suppliers, and freight forwarders.
I've spent more than 12 years preparing RFQs and purchase orders, evaluating quotations, tracking overseas deliveries, maintaining inventory records, and supporting local and international supplier relationships. I'm seeking remote procurement, supply chain, purchasing, inventory, supplier coordination, or related operations opportunities.
