Summary

I am an experienced specialist in supply management, technical procurement, negotiation and contracting. I also have successful experience in process design/implementation, sustainability initiatives, business and value chain analysis. My real passion is to drive improvement projects with cross-functional teams internally and/or external partnerships, such as with key suppliers or industry partners. My real strength is that people enjoy working with me and appreciate my honesty, prestige lessness and hard work. This have helped me enormously to not only achieve success but also enjoying work. My technical and legal understanding have also given me an edge in procurement and contracting. My key characteristics are being calm, conscientious and analytical.
