What I'm looking for

I'm looking to strengthen procurement, logistics and supply chain systems for health and development programmes, using partnerships, strategic planning, capacity building and effective delivery to improve access to essential supplies.

At UNICEF Pakistan Country Office, I coordinate procurement services and nutrition supply chain strengthening, including support for the introduction of Multiple Micronutrient Supplements as part of the Nutrition Matching Fund.

I have supported World Bank and ADB COVID-19 health projects through planning, procurement, customs clearance, warehousing, transport and distribution of pharmaceutical and medical products. I also monitor vaccine stocks, generate weekly stock analysis reports, and helped avoid ROTA and Penta vaccine stock-outs through planning with partners and UNICEF Supply Division.

Across UNICEF and Coca-Cola Icek, I have managed purchasing cycles, vendor negotiations, local procurement, logistics, warehousing, supplier development and contract-related processes. I build partnerships with government, UN agencies, global alliances, donors and health organizations to improve supply chain systems.

With more than 10 years of procurement experience, I bring practical knowledge of SAP, PROMS, VISION, reporting, customs clearance, inventory management and last-mile delivery.
