Message

At Fibrex Contracting, I manage end-to-end procurement for construction projects, sourcing materials and subcontractors while coordinating with project and site teams. I negotiate supplier rates and contract terms, evaluate vendor quotations, and prepare subcontract agreements and purchase orders.

I also update procurement workflows through FibrexERP (Odoo), reducing purchase order processing time, and maintain procurement logs and LPO schedules for transparency and audit compliance. Earlier, I supported procurement and operations at Metal Forms LLC and ANQ Construction Corporation, and held HR roles at First Balfour Inc. and Scarborough Fine Furniture Inc.
