What I'm looking for

I seek a senior procurement/supply chain role in humanitarian or international organizations where I can lead compliant sourcing, strengthen supplier partnerships, build local capacity, and drive process automation for efficient emergency response.

I am a procurement and supply chain professional with over 19 years' experience in international humanitarian operations, skilled in strategic sourcing, contract management, and donor compliance with UN, EU and USAID standards.

I have managed large international tenders, negotiated framework agreements, automated procurement workflows (Umoja, Power Automate) cutting lead times by 75%, and maintained zero compliance findings in internal and external audits.

I am an experienced trainer and team leader who has built capacity for NGOs and national staff across high-risk contexts (Syria, Ukraine, Turkey), and I hold a Master’s in Procurement, Logistics & Supply Chain Management and CIPS certification up to Level 4.
