What I'm looking for

I seek a dynamic role that fosters growth and leverages my operational expertise.

I am a highly motivated and diligent professional with a passion for delivering results and a commitment to excellence. My extensive background spans various sectors, including Inventory, Quality, Logistics, Purchasing, Production, and Administration. I hold an N6 in Business Management and have completed several certifications and short courses that have furthered my expertise.

In my current role as an Inventory and Operational Manager at DSV, I manage a team of 40 subordinates, ensuring discipline and performance management. I have successfully transferred over 33,000 part numbers with less than 1% stock variance and have implemented comprehensive stock counting processes that significantly reduced stock loss. My leadership skills enable me to connect with diverse cultures and age groups, positioning me as an effective leader in any environment.
