Nulia De Orellana
@nuliadeorellana
Procurement professional driving international purchasing, negotiations, and cost control.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Business Administration professional with 9+ years of experience in procurement and international purchasing. I manage end-to-end procurement processes—including import operations from the USA through courier coordination—and I negotiate with suppliers to optimize both costs and contract terms.
In banking environments, I executed full tender processes for key services such as maintenance, security, outsourcing, and insurance. I also monitored contract expirations, managed renewals and revisions, and prepared purchase orders and area performance reports to prevent service interruptions.
Today, I lead procurement operations while handling expense control and compliance, processing accounting entries (including DTEs and re-invoicing), and preparing monthly metrics and spending provisions. I use Microsoft Dynamics GP ERP for procurement and financial tracking, and I’m looking for a stable company that values organization, analytical skills, and results orientation.
