What I'm looking for

I'm seeking a Procurement Manager role where I can lead strategic sourcing, category management, supplier governance, and stakeholder partnerships to deliver cost optimization and procurement transformation.

At DigiCert, I lead end-to-end global sourcing across IT infrastructure, SaaS, software, consulting, and indirect categories, managing $1M–5M in annual spend and relationships with 100+ suppliers. I deliver 8–12% cost optimization through competitive bidding, supplier consolidation, spend analysis, and commercial negotiation.

Previously at Accenture and WNS Global Services, I managed strategic sourcing initiatives, RFx processes, supplier evaluations, negotiations, and Source-to-Contract operations. I’ve also mentored junior sourcing analysts and partnered with Legal, Finance, Security, and business stakeholders to improve compliant, efficient procurement processes.

Across 10+ years in procurement, I’ve progressed from procurement operations into global strategic sourcing, using SAP Ariba, SAP Fieldglass, Oracle NetSuite, Power BI, and Advanced Excel to strengthen supplier performance and sourcing decisions.
