Detail-oriented procurement and logistics professional driving operational efficiency and cost savings.
What I'm looking for
I am a detail-oriented procurement, logistics, and administrative professional with over two years of hands-on experience supporting operations in fast-paced environments.
I have assisted in end-to-end procurement processes, maintained procurement documentation, and provided logistical support for meetings, trainings, and official events while ensuring compliance with organizational policies and donor requirements.
I led a team of 10 control-room operators, trained new staff, and managed surveillance operations, demonstrating leadership, training ability, and operational accuracy. I also managed inventories in warehouse and medical store environments, conducted stock audits, and maintained asset registers.
I hold a B.Sc. in Biochemistry and multiple certifications in procurement, logistics, warehouse management, and Excel. I deliver measurable results—such as reducing procurement costs by 50% through vendor negotiation—and seek roles where I can streamline processes and support efficient, compliant operations.
