Nakia Brandon
@nakiabrandon
Purchasing coordinator who streamlines procurement and strengthens supplier performance.
What I'm looking for
I’m a resourceful purchasing coordination professional with hands-on experience spanning purchasing, client account management, and legal support. I focus on turning day-to-day operational work into measurable outcomes—speed, accuracy, and cost control.
At ZECO, LLC, I streamlined procurement processes by using a centralized vendor management system, cutting purchase order processing time by 35% and delivering $120K in annual cost savings through strategic supplier negotiations. I coordinate end-to-end purchasing for 200+ SKUs across multiple product categories, maintaining 98% inventory accuracy and ensuring zero supply chain disruptions throughout the fiscal year.
I also cultivate supplier relationships—managing 15+ key suppliers and renegotiating contract terms to secure a 12% reduction in material costs while improving average delivery lead times by 20%. I’m comfortable working across teams to resolve issues quickly and keep operations compliant with confidentiality guidelines.
Previously, as a Client Account Manager at AMERICAN BATH GROUP, I grew revenue by 32% through upselling opportunities and negotiated long-term supply agreements that expanded market share by 18% and contributed $2.4M in new contract value within the first fiscal year. Earlier, with US LEGAL SUPPORT, I reviewed high-volume batches of documentation with 99.8% accuracy, improving turnaround time by 20% while maintaining a zero-defect rate on critical submissions.
