Procurement professional

I appeared in procurement unplanned.

Allow me to share a tale of a journey that began unexpectedly, leading to a passion that would shape the course of my life. 

 I invite you to immerse in the purchasing process together!

Starting out in the realm of marketing, I set my sights on becoming a marketing manager, eager to make my mark in the business world. But as fate would have it, an unforeseen twist emerged during a first job interview. They politely informed me that the position had already been filled, but an enticing opportunity in procurement awaited me. Without hesitation, I embraced the unexpected and said YES, not knowing how it would alter my path forever.

That fateful YES was the spark that ignited a genuine passion for procurement within me. The thrill of bringing innovative ideas to the market, engaging with diverse suppliers, and finding solutions to complex challenges filled me with a profound sense of purpose and fulfillment.

Throughout my career, I found myself navigating various companies, each presenting its unique set of challenges - from competitive landscapes to economic uncertainties. Regardless of the circumstances, like dividing the category into smaller ones, 1 manager for 2 growing companies with a bunch of new products, the company's rapid growth when the department grew from 2 to 10 people in 5 years and other interesting stories.  I embraced the journey and witnessed the growth of procurement departments, from humble beginnings to big teams.

Staying grounded and focused in the face of these transformations became my guiding principle. I learned to build from scratch, starting from nearly nothing, and today, I am equipped with a profound understanding of the challenges that companies encounter during their growth and development.

As a professional with insights into the inner workings of corporations, I remain an advocate for common sense. I recognize the value of bureaucracy when necessary, but I strive to strike the perfect balance that upholds sound business logic.

In my heart, I carry a mantra that defines my approach to every endeavor: a creative, solution-focused thinker with a strategic mindset. I empathize, putting myself in someone else's shoes to view challenges from different perspectives. All this is complemented by an unwavering belief that everything is possible, embracing a relaxed and optimistic attitude.

Today, I stand before you, not just as a procurement enthusiast, but as someone who has uncovered their true calling. My journey embodies resilience, adaptability, and an unwavering determination to make a difference in the world of procurement. It is an honor to share my experiences with all of you, and I hope that through this dialogue, we can inspire one another to seize unexpected opportunities and embrace the magic of transformation.

I invite you to join me for a monthly meeting in the Procurement club or I am sure we will pass through each other in one of the conferences. Of course, the fastest way to find me, is simply by booking a discovery call.
