What I'm looking for

I’m looking to be an expert in procurement, handling sourcing, negotiation, and tendering with full compliance. I want a team-focused environment where I can deliver cost savings and quality, manage inventory and records, and grow with minimal supervision.

I’m an enthusiastic, reliable, ambitious team player with strong moral and Christian values. I bring a high degree of diligence, integrity, and professionalism to every procurement task, whether I’m working under pressure or collaborating across departments.

I’ve worked as a Procurement Clerk at Kenya Rural Roads Authority and, more recently, as a Procurement Specialist at Magunas Supermarket (Headquarters). I source and procure goods and services, negotiate contracts and terms, manage inventory to reduce wastage, and conduct market research to support reliable vendors, pricing trends, and business needs.

I’m especially strong in procurement compliance—aligning procurement activities with policies, regulations, and legal standards using ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning). I also handle tendering support, procurement documentation, records and databases, report writing and presentation, and customer service with clear communication in both English and Swahili.
