What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can create real impact by improving procurement efficiency, optimizing supplier relationships, and contributing to business growth. I value a dynamic environment where I can take ownership, solve problems, and continuously develop both strategically and operationally.

I am a Procurement and Supply Chain professional with 6+ years of experience managing international sourcing, supplier negotiations, and logistics operations. I have managed a portfolio of 3,000+ SKUs across multiple countries, delivering 8–12% cost savings and improving delivery timelines by up to 20% through supplier optimization and process improvements.

In my career, I have led end-to-end procurement processes, built strong relationships with global suppliers, and implemented strategies that improve operational efficiency while maintaining quality and reliability. I have experience coordinating imports, optimizing supplier performance, and solving complex supply chain challenges in fast-paced environments.

I am passionate about creating measurable business impact, improving procurement processes, and contributing strategically to organizational growth. I am particularly interested in roles where I can leverage my expertise in supplier management, cost optimization, and logistics to help companies scale efficiently, while continuing to grow professionally in a dynamic and international setting.
