Business consultant leveraging 15+ years in procurement, BI, and real estate advisory to deliver measurable cost and growth.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Business Consultant with 15+ years of experience across multinational environments, specializing in Strategic Transportation Procurement and Supplier Relationship Management (SRM). I’ve consistently driven procurement transformation using Business Intelligence and data-led decision-making to deliver multi-million-euro cost optimizations.
At DHL Freight, I led strategic sourcing initiatives and transportation procurement strategy across Belgium, Netherlands, and the UK, expanding procurement scope (€15M to €25M) and delivering €1M+ annual cost savings. I built custom Power BI dashboards for spend analysis and performance tracking, and I ensured Pharma GDP compliance through supplier audits and governance frameworks.
Now, I combine structured consulting with direct client advisory as a Real Estate Consultant in Lisbon, guiding buyers and sellers through market analysis, listing management, marketing and lead generation, negotiation, and transaction coordination. My approach is pragmatic and impact-driven—blending strategic thinking with hands-on execution and strong compliance/CRM discipline.
