What I'm looking for

I'm looking for remote procurement, sourcing, category, or supplier-management work across EU or global time zones, where I can lead complex portfolios, strengthen compliant digital workflows, and improve supplier performance.

I've led procurement and financial operations at Comision Ejecutiva Hidroelectrica del Rio Lempa (CEL), managing a $290M+ annual multi-category portfolio across operations, CAPEX, and critical infrastructure maintenance. I led 24 procurement professionals across three units and improved process efficiency by 30% through agile cloud-integrated workflows.

Across CEL and Corte de Cuentas de la Republica, I've managed end-to-end sourcing, international supplier negotiations, competitive tenders, contract lifecycle controls, and audit-ready documentation. I work across Spanish, English, and Italian, applying ISO 37001 and ISO 37301 controls to supplier governance, purchasing workflows, and risk management.
