What I'm looking for

I am seeking a procurement/operations leadership role where I can improve supplier performance, reduce costs, implement SAP/BI solutions, and scale e-commerce and logistics within a collaborative, growth-oriented team.

I am a procurement and operations professional with over 10 years of experience managing strategic sourcing, supplier negotiations, and inventory control across retail and healthcare. I am an advanced user of SAP (MM & SD), Excel, and Power BI to monitor KPIs and support decision-making.

I have direct experience working with Roche’s Diagnostics division as a supplier, successfully renegotiating contracts and improving cost efficiency. At UnityStores I coordinated inventory and purchasing across multiple locations, contributing to a 25% increase in annual sales and leading e-commerce growth of 50% YoY.

I have managed multi-million-dollar budgets, overseen networks of international and local suppliers, negotiated contracts with national couriers (2PL), and acted as SAP MM & SD Key User while building financial dashboards in Power BI. I also led operational openings and implemented commercial initiatives that increased category sales by 200%.

I am results-oriented and focused on continuous process improvement, cross-functional collaboration, and measurable cost savings. I seek opportunities to apply my procurement, inventory, and logistics expertise to drive efficiency and growth in a mission-driven organization.
