Procurement and strategic sourcing professional driving vendor value, compliance, and cost efficiency.
What I'm looking for
I’m a procurement and supply chain professional with over 15 years of experience across aviation, cruise lines, F&B, furniture, and interior solutions. In my current role at SATS Ltd., I focus on strategic sourcing that supports product quality, vendor compliance, and end-to-end procurement performance.
I ensure vendors meet agreed standards and specifications, build and maintain key manufacturer and supplier relationships, and establish and follow through tender processes. I also create departmental policies and procedures, review quotations and pricing terms, take action against inconsistent suppliers, and coordinate with departmental heads for the most cost-effective purchases—while enforcing purchasing datelines and ensuring inventory schedules, proper storage, and FIFO methodology.
