What I'm looking for

I am looking for opportunities that allow me to leverage my procurement expertise in a dynamic environment, fostering growth and efficiency.

I am a dedicated Supply Chain Management Officer with extensive experience in procurement and logistics. Currently, I work at Tana and Athi Rivers Development Authority, where I manage the preparation and dispatch of requests for quotations, evaluate tender documents, and ensure timely delivery of goods and services. My role involves preparing professional opinions and local purchase orders, as well as conducting inspections of delivered items.

Previously, I held similar positions at Masinga Dam Resort and Tana and Athi Rivers Development Authority, where I honed my skills in sourcing goods and services, maintaining supplier lists, and undertaking market surveys to achieve value for money. My experience also includes administrative roles, such as working as a secretary at Pooja Patel and Company Advocates, where I coordinated communication and organized meetings effectively.
