At Abbott, I direct sourcing, negotiation, and contracting for goods and services, and manage key categories including transportation, raw materials, and industrial maintenance. I use SAP to report on spending and supplier performance, and have achieved cost reductions of 15%–30% depending on the category.
At Kimberly-Clark, I developed category strategies and negotiated with suppliers across Latin America, including in transportation, professional services, ITS, and raw materials. Earlier in my career, I worked in finance and accounting, including as Credit and Collections Manager, and received Kimberly-Clark’s global DSO Excellence Award in 2009.
