What I'm looking for

Seeking a challenging role that leverages my procurement expertise to drive cost efficiency and operational excellence, while providing opportunities for growth and development.

As a seasoned procurement expert with over 13 years of global experience, I have developed a strong expertise in sourcing, contract management, and strategic procurement optimization. My attention to detail and ability to drive cost efficiency and operational excellence have been demonstrated through my work with various organizations, including Tesco, London Stock Exchange, and Branch Metrics Inc.

Throughout my career, I have managed end-to-end procurement processes, from vendor selection to delivery and payment, ensuring timely and cost-effective project completion. My technical proficiency in SAP, Oracle, Ariba, Poseidon, and MS Office has enabled me to streamline procurement processes and enhance efficiency.

I am a strong communicator with a grasp of technical, business, and financial concepts, and have successfully negotiated contracts and fostered productive client and stakeholder relationships. My experience in managing global projects and working with clients from diverse regions has given me a unique understanding of cultural nuances and the ability to adapt to different business environments.
