What I'm looking for

Looking for a fully remote procurement or strategic sourcing role where I can apply 12+ years of experience managing global suppliers and multi-million spend. Focused on cost reduction, supplier strategy, and working capital improvement. Open to EU/US companies, permanent or consulting roles, in data-driven, international environments.

I help companies reduce costs, strengthen supply chains, and improve cash flow through strategic procurement and supplier management.

Over the past 12 years, I have managed global supplier networks and multi-million-dollar spend across electronics, PCBs, cables, metals, packaging, and consumer products. My approach combines analytical rigor with practical execution, focusing on results that directly impact profitability and operational performance.

Key areas of expertise include:

  • Strategic sourcing and supplier development

  • Cost reduction and commercial negotiations

  • Inventory optimization and working capital improvement

  • Supply risk mitigation and continuity planning

  • Procurement analytics and reporting

Throughout my career, I have led initiatives that improved inventory performance, strengthened supplier relationships, and generated more than $5 million in quarterly cash-flow improvements through inventory optimization programs.

I am experienced working in international, cross-functional environments and collaborate effectively with operations, planning, logistics, finance, and executive leadership teams. Equally comfortable working independently, I have a strong track record in fully remote roles.

Open to remote Procurement Manager, Strategic Sourcing, Category Management, and Supply Chain leadership opportunities across Europe and North America.
