What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that offers growth opportunities and a collaborative work environment.

I am a highly motivated procurement officer with a Bachelor of Science Honour’s Degree in Supply Chain Management from Chinhoyi University of Technology. My professional journey has equipped me with extensive experience in overseeing procurement departments, negotiating with suppliers, and ensuring compliance with company policies. I thrive in dynamic environments where I can leverage my skills to enhance operational efficiency.

In my recent role at Aviation Ground Services, I successfully managed the procurement of goods and services, created purchase orders, and prepared comprehensive procurement reports. My previous experience as a dispatch clerk and stores clerk has further honed my ability to manage inventory and provide exceptional customer service. I am passionate about continuous learning and exploring innovative solutions to improve supply chain processes.
