PakistanWhat I'm looking for
At the Embassy of Pakistan in Beijing, I supported defence procurement by negotiating equipment contracts with Chinese manufacturers and coordinating supplier communication in English and Chinese.
I handled documentation, customs and delivery arrangements so equipment reached the Pakistan Air Force and Pakistan Army on schedule.
At Pakistan Air Force, I managed logistics procurement across more than 25 weapon systems. I built spare-parts and consumables forecasting models that reduced overstock by 15%.
I also led the procurement and logistics for relocating aircraft spare parts from Turkey to Pakistan, completing the project ahead of schedule. I'm now looking for a procurement or supply chain role in the Gulf.
