What I'm looking for

I am looking for a dynamic role in procurement that fosters growth and innovation.

I am an experienced IT Buyer currently working at Najar in Paris, where I lead procurement projects and translate client needs into actionable plans. My role involves negotiating supplier contracts, achieving significant cost savings of 20% to 40%, and implementing contract lifecycle tracking to enhance supplier accountability.

Previously, I worked as an IT Buyer and Contract Manager Consultant at KLB Group, where I focused on contractual governance and risk identification. My experience also includes a role at Amadeus, where I honed my skills in software purchasing and contract management. I hold a Master’s degree in Project Management and Supply Chain from Skema Business School, complemented by certifications in Lean Six Sigma and Agile Project Management.
