Summary

A solutions orientated Procurement Manager who can formulate and drive a consistent approach towards all sourcing, purchasing and tendering activities to ensure value for money is maximized and cost savings ensured. I am an expert at delivering individual solutions to specific problems, something I do by combining ingenuity and integrity. Working with U.S Federal and State Department on a daily basis without fail and to put my Organization in a Consulting Position in front of these Giants is no easy task. I was able to accomplish this task on a regular basis in providing them with the best client/vendor/technical support. I will always ensure that all Operational, Consulting and Logistic activities support and strengthen the strategic objectives of the overall organization. Right now I would like to join an organization that considers its people to be its most important asset.
