What I'm looking for

I’m looking to lead regional indirect procurement and commodity governance, partnering with global stakeholders to drive P&L savings, cash-flow optimization, and SAP Ariba-enabled supplier transformation in an automotive environment.

I’m a Regional Indirect Procurement & Commodity leader with extensive experience managing large-scale indirect spend across the Americas within the automotive industry. I’ve delivered double-digit P&L savings, significant cash-flow impact, and procurement transformation through strategic sourcing, supplier negotiations, and regional commodity governance.

In my current role, I manage €1.2B indirect spend across the Americas, delivering €17.1M in P&L and total performance savings (FY2025 YTD) and generating €7.7M in direct cash-flow impact through payment-term optimization and sourcing initiatives. I also lead multi-country commodity governance—driving source-to-contract execution, RFIs/RFPs/RFQs, and SAP Ariba contract management—while building and leading a regional commodity team of 15 across multiple countries.
