Samantha Sih
@smcsih
Senior procurement leader driving strategic sourcing, vendor operations, and measurable cost savings across global multi-market supply chains.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Senior Procurement Professional with 7+ years managing complex, multi-market supply chains and $42M+ USD in annual spend across global operations. I bring commercial rigor and cost discipline through strategic sourcing, supplier negotiation, contract and vendor management, and supply continuity planning—so leadership has clear visibility and decisions are grounded in data.
I’ve delivered $5.4M USD in documented cost savings by running competitive sourcing, supplier optimization, and price gap analysis, while maintaining continuity during market volatility. Across Food & Beverage, Manufacturing, FMCG, and Hospitality, I build procurement systems (PO accuracy, material master, dashboards, KPI reporting, SOPs/playbooks) and leverage AI-assisted procurement workflows with human auditing to keep operations consistent across teams and time zones.
