What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role in a dynamic organization that values strategic procurement and offers opportunities for professional growth.

I am a seasoned procurement and materials management professional with over 22 years of specialized experience in the construction industry. My career has been marked by significant achievements, including managing material supply for large-scale construction projects with budgets ranging from Rs. 4500 to 5000 Crores and overseeing procurement worth Rs. 300 Crores annually. I have a proven track record in driving procurement strategies, creating policies, and implementing cost-saving measures that have greatly benefited the organizations I have worked with.

Throughout my career, I have been instrumental in building and leading procurement teams, developing strategic supplier partnerships, and ensuring the successful execution of the procure-to-pay lifecycle. My hands-on experience with SAP implementation and Six Sigma methodologies has equipped me with the skills necessary to optimize processes and enhance supplier performance. I am passionate about fostering a culture of continuous improvement and sustainability within the supply chain.
