What I'm looking for

I'm looking to lead supply chain, logistics, commercial operations, or port-cost initiatives where I can improve supplier performance, reduce total cost of ownership, strengthen service delivery, and drive data-led process improvements.

At GAC Group in Dubai, I lead regional port cost verification for global vessel calls, analyzing disbursement accounts, port tariffs, supplier pricing, and spend trends. I've managed 500+ port calls annually, identified monthly cost-saving opportunities worth USD 75K, and maintained 98% PDA/FDA verification accuracy.

Across J M Baxi Technologies, Marcura, Honeywell, and Maersk, I've improved delivery performance, managed SAP-based supply chain operations, led teams of 5–9 professionals, and built KPI reporting that supports commercial decisions. I use forecasting, supplier coordination, process improvement, and advanced Excel to reduce turnaround time, strengthen SLA compliance, and improve service delivery.
