I am a seasoned Procurement and Logistics Specialist with over eight years of experience in managing regional procurement and supply chain operations. My expertise lies in overseeing budgets exceeding USD 15M and implementing procurement strategies that have successfully reduced costs by up to 20%. I have a proven track record of managing procurement processes in compliance with donor requirements from organizations such as UN and USAID, while effectively utilizing ERP systems like Unit 4 and SAP to streamline operations.

In my current role as Procurement and Logistics Manager at Royal Van Zanten Ltd, I lead global procurement and logistics activities, ensuring operational efficiency and compliance with donor and organizational policies. I manage a team of procurement professionals, focusing on capacity-building initiatives and optimizing stock levels. My key achievements include reducing procurement lead time by 20% through process optimization and vendor negotiations, as well as training staff in the effective use of the Unit 4 ERP system, which has significantly improved inventory tracking accuracy.
