What I'm looking for

I'm open to global, remote-first procurement and sourcing leadership roles.

At Diageo India (United Spirits Limited), I owned indirect category strategy across Corporate & Site Services, IT, HR, Marketing, Professional Services/Consultancy, and Business Travel, working with stakeholders and suppliers across Australia, Europe, and African markets. I led sourcing cycles and governed regional framework agreements and contracts.

I digitized spend visibility and approval workflows with SAP and Ariba, and built supplier performance dashboards and governance frameworks. Earlier, I managed sourcing and vendor processes at Grainotch Industries Limited and end-to-end procurement operations at Sterling Chemicals & Alcohols Limited.
