I love what I do, and employers love me doing it on their behalf, delivering significant bottom line benefits and improved supplier services, again and again. I thrive in challenging, high risk, high cost situations and I always find ways to improve supplier relationships and commercial and contractual arrangements to deliver real, sustainable savings, above and beyond everyone's expectations.I am a highly experienced senior executive and procurement professional with a broad cross section of skills and experience gained in various industry and government environments. I have worked in Europe, USA, Asia and Australia in various procurement and sourcing management and project and program management roles.I have worked most recently in a variety of strategic sourcing and other procurement related roles, on a consulting basis, with or without performance bonuses. I have helped build centralised procurement teams from the ground up, from procurement function and policy development, diagnostics, sourcing program development and delivery, category and vendor management development, procurement team building and mentoring, and onto business process and even procurement function outsourcing and ERP iProcure implementation. In other words, Procurement end to end, no challenge too big or complex.I have built an exceptionally strong reputation in both the procurement and wider supplier communities, based on a track record of exceptional results, driven by innovative thinking and robust action planning, with services then delivered with integrity, professionalism and fairness.I have demonstrated many times that I am a results focussed leader, who has what it takes to get people delivering effectively as a team, to meet all business requirements, well beyond stakeholder expectation.
