What I'm looking for

I am looking for a remote procurement role that allows me to drive strategic outcomes and foster collaboration within a dynamic team.

I am a results-driven procurement leader with over 22 years of experience in optimizing end-to-end procurement, logistics, and supply chain operations. My expertise lies in strategic remote coordination, where I have successfully managed procurement processes across various industries, including cement, power, defense, and ceramics. I have a proven track record of achieving significant cost savings and ensuring timely delivery through effective vendor management and negotiation skills.

Throughout my career, I have co-founded and led commercial operations for a ceramic tiles trading company, where I achieved a 20% reduction in procurement costs and maintained a 98% on-time delivery rate. My experience includes implementing e-procurement systems and ERP solutions, which have enhanced operational efficiency and streamlined procurement processes. I am now seeking a work-from-home procurement role where I can leverage my skills to drive strategic outcomes and contribute to organizational success.
