What I'm looking for

I seek a logistics or port-operations role where I can apply TMS/WMS/ERP expertise to improve throughput, ensure compliance, reduce costs, and develop team performance.

I am a port operations and logistics professional with hands-on experience supervising container and RoRo handling, inventory control, and coordination with port and customs authorities. I drive operational improvements and ensure compliance with KPA, KRA and WMS/TMS protocols.

My roles have delivered measurable results: reducing truck turnaround time by up to 20%, cutting transportation costs by 40% through route optimization, and maintaining 100% inventory/data accuracy using ERP and WMS tools. I prepare performance reports, support audits, and lead teams to meet KPIs.

I bring practical knowledge of port operations, customs documentation, TMS/WMS/ERP systems, and demand-driven planning, and I seek to contribute these strengths to a dynamic logistics or port operations team focused on continuous improvement and operational excellence.
