I procure raw materials, negotiate suppliers, and optimize inventory for chemical manufacturing operations.
What I'm looking for
I'm currently an Assistant Manager at Grasim Industries, procuring quality raw materials at competitive prices and coordinating end-to-end logistics for plant operations. I manage supplier negotiations, purchase documentation, inventory control, transportation contracts, and MIS reporting.
Previously at Rossari Biotech, I led raw-material procurement for Silvassa and Dahej factories and supported subcontracting supplies for Dabur, Godrej, Reliance, and Jyoti Laboratories. I aligned vendors, logistics, factories, production, quality, engineering, projects, and finance to keep materials available for production and new product trials.
Across Polygon Chemicals, Vitane Pharmaceuticals, and Vivan Life Sciences, I've managed RFQs, purchase orders, vendor relationships, production planning, export orders, and inventory for more than 2,000 APIs, deuterium-labelled compounds, and metabolites. I focus on cost reduction, reliable supply, supplier development, and practical procurement improvements.
