What I'm looking for

I am seeking a role that fosters growth, values collaboration, and emphasizes strategic supply chain management.

I am a results-driven Senior Supply Chain Manager with over 20 years of experience in the hospitality industry, specializing in inflight catering and quick-service restaurants. My expertise lies in managing multimillion-dollar supply chain operations, where I successfully oversaw a $16.6M annual budget and implemented cost-saving strategies that achieved a remarkable 23% reduction during the COVID-19 pandemic and 13% post-pandemic.

Throughout my career, I have developed strong skills in sourcing strategies, supplier relationship management, and negotiating sustainable partnerships with over 250 suppliers, including 30 international vendors. My commitment to operational excellence has enabled me to improve inventory accuracy and reduce slow-moving stock levels significantly. I have coordinated supply chain operations across multiple countries in Africa, optimizing logistics and supporting regional units to align supply chain strategies with organizational objectives in dynamic, growth-oriented environments.
