What I'm looking for

I’m looking to lead procurement and supply chain initiatives—owning sourcing, contracts, and compliant delivery—while using monitoring, analytics, and risk controls to improve performance, transparency, and cost outcomes across large programs.

I’m a Procurement and Supply Chain Management Specialist with 12+ years’ international experience across public sector, private enterprises, and NGOs. I’m MCIPS and CIPS Level 6 qualified, currently pursuing an MSc in Supply Chain Management.

I bring a proven record of delivering procurement and supply chain projects that optimize costs and ensure compliance with PFMA, donor-funded, and corporate procurement frameworks. I’m especially strong in strategic sourcing, supplier development, contract negotiation, and tender/bid analysis.

In my roles, I’ve led end-to-end supply chain optimization—from procurement and contract finalization to warehousing, distribution, inventory management, and logistics coordination. I also implement Monitoring & Evaluation frameworks for end-user verification, supply chain performance tracking, reporting, and transparency.

I’m known for building robust procurement and supply chain systems and providing advisory services, capacity building, and training to governments, corporates, and development partners. Whether it’s managing large tenders valued over R500 million or improving procurement cycle times by 20%, I focus on measurable outcomes and reliable delivery.
