Summary

I am a results oriented and efficiency-minded professional, with hands-on experience spanning all aspects of operations, specifically in the area of procurement, to include exceptional negotiation and mediation skills. Demonstrated track record of cutting purchasing/procurement costs by developing internal policies, cost models, and subcontracts that increased discounts and made for more favorable terms and conditions as they relate to invoicing and payment terms. Detail-oriented, with excellent interpersonal skills and demonstrated ability to work with cross functional teams. Strong believer in self-development of personal capabilities through learning. I am a creative thinker with the capability to translate vision into action by effectively influencing senior management and peers, by inspiring subordinates, and by developing mutually beneficial relationships with suppliers.

My key skills include Procurement Operations, Cost Reduction, Supply Chain Management, Strategic Sourcing, Vendor Management, Inventory Control & Management, Project Planning, Spend Management & Analysis, Problem Identification & Resolution, Team Leadership, Process Improvement, Relationship Management, Decision Making, Written & Verbal Communication and SAP-ISU

Currently I am engaged with GCS Group of Companies, as a Senior Procurement Executive, where I designed and implemented strategies to raise vendor base from 3 to 6 vendors (locally as well as internationally) for the technical equipment purchase. Attached is my resume which showcases my progressive experience and successful track record for leading successful initiatives. My professional background and great industrial exposure coupled with an excellent track record makes me an ideal candidate for executive roles. As such, I would welcome a discussion regarding opportunities with your organization that fit my background.
