What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that offers growth opportunities, a collaborative culture, and the chance to lead impactful sourcing initiatives.

I am a seasoned Demand Planning and Sourcing Manager with over a decade of experience in the Trading, Manufacturing, Banking, and Finance industries. My career has been marked by a commitment to precision and detail, which has enabled me to develop and implement effective sourcing strategies that optimize costs and ensure stable supply chains. Currently pursuing my CSCP certification, I continuously seek to enhance my skills and knowledge in supply chain management.

Throughout my career, I have successfully led teams and managed supplier relationships, achieving significant cost savings and operational efficiencies. For instance, at Pinetree Securities, I developed a comprehensive sourcing plan that resulted in a 5% reduction in procurement costs. My ability to analyze market trends and data has been instrumental in making informed strategic decisions, ensuring that my teams meet and exceed company expectations.

I thrive in dynamic environments and am passionate about building strong networks with suppliers and stakeholders. My goal is to leverage my expertise in sourcing and demand planning to contribute to a forward-thinking organization that values innovation and continuous improvement.
