Supply chain and procurement professional focused on compliant sourcing, cost efficiency, and operational performance.
What I'm looking for
I’m a motivated, experienced supply chain and procurement professional with 5+ years of experience, focused on integrating essential business processes to enhance efficiency and deliver value to stakeholders. I align procurement strategies with business goals, reduce costs, and improve operational performance through disciplined, compliant execution.
At Pakistan Petroleum Limited (PPL), I currently work as a Technical Buyer - Operations & Maintenance, managing strategic procurement (local and foreign) via PPRA-compliant bidding procedures. I evaluate requirements from planning, shape bid/requisition packages through e-procurement, coordinate tender publication and bid openings, and drive Technical Evaluation and comparative/commercial evaluations to support approvals and award decisions.
Previously at JS Bank Limited, I led procurement for IT services (including cyber security and network/infrastructure resources), managed procurement of IT equipment for Pan Pakistan locations, and negotiated contracts. Earlier at Jubilee Life Insurance Co. Ltd, I handled IT asset procurement end-to-end, executed RFPs and invoice processing tied to GRN/GIN, negotiated vendor SLAs, and supported installations such as UPS across Pan Pakistan locations and service/ replacement of printers for 300+ branches.
I also bring hands-on supply chain exposure from my Supply Chain Intern role supporting logistics and warehousing, strengthening my ability to synchronize stores, end users, suppliers, and finance. Across projects, I’ve contributed to capacity-related procurement (GPF-III), proactive spares sourcing before commissioning, and process improvements that curtailed vendor grievances by 90%—backed by CIPS Level 4 certifications and a clear ethical sourcing mindset.
