What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters innovation and sustainability in supply chain management.

I am a dedicated supply chain strategist with over three years of experience in diverse sectors including FMCG, ECOM, QSR, and B2B. My career has been marked by a commitment to driving resilient growth and delivering measurable business improvements. I excel in procurement, automation, and packaging development, consistently achieving significant cost reductions and enhancing process reliability.

At Harris Freeman, I directed procurement across 250+ SKUs and implemented packaging cost reduction strategies that resulted in a 32% decrease in spending. My leadership in automation projects led to a 27% reduction in operational costs, showcasing my ability to deliver impactful results. I am recognized for my strategic approach to supplier negotiations and my commitment to maintaining high service levels, achieving over 97% on-time, in-full (OTIF) delivery.

Previously, I served as a Manager in Packaging Procurement & Development at Anveshan Farm, where I optimized logistics costs and introduced eco-friendly packaging solutions. My educational background includes a Post Graduate Diploma in Packaging from the Indian Institute of Packaging, equipping me with the technical skills necessary to excel in this field. I am passionate about leveraging my expertise to drive sustainable practices and enhance supply chain efficiency.
