Bio
Rita Capela Carvalho
Vanessa is an excellent and very talented professional. During almost two years, she was my direct supervisor in Suppliers' Account Management department at SONAE Centre Services. Even though her technical knowledge and expertise were conspicuous, it were the leading skills that enhanced her true value. She was particularly focused on keeping the team update with our KPI's results, as well as prioritizing the duties per week. As I had come to SONAE as my first job, I had to learn everything from the beginning. Vanessa's capacity to draw a straightforward plan to guide me during the first 6 months was crucial towards my evolution. Indeed, she has one remarkable strength: the ability of empowering her employees simultaneously with hard and soft skills, well appreciated inwards our former company. To sum up, Vanessa is a brilliant technician, a prestigious professional and a remarkable leader, who lead our team to conquer great results and, also, who truly inspired us to achieve success in every aspect of our lives.
