Procurement and sourcing business manager with nearly nine years optimizing costs, contracts, and supplier relationships.
What I'm looking for
I’m an experienced Procurement Professional and Business Manager with nearly nine years in Procurement & Sourcing Operations. I focus on Material Procurement, Contracts Procurement and Contract Management, Purchase Management, and Supply Chain Management—bringing procurement discipline to achieve organizational goals.
In my current role at Technica Engineers, I drive cost efficiencies through strategic sourcing, manage end-to-end procurement cycles, and ensure seamless documentation. I also strengthen supplier relationships while handling material inspection and optimization to keep projects and operations moving.
Earlier, I built hands-on operational and technical understanding in production roles, including inspection after machining and bending and working with plant and systems monitoring and commissioning. I’m comfortable analyzing root causes, initiating corrective actions, and creating preventative measures in complex, cross-functional environments.
I also bring commercial experience from Technical Sales, where I met sales targets, supported clients with after-sales services, and translated customer requirements to Product Management teams. I’m now seeking senior-level management opportunities to elevate procurement performance, price negotiation outcomes, and operational excellence.
