  This was my first experience of being involved in a supply chain.I was able to utilize and develop the gemology skills recently acquired at the GIA.Day to day operations involved the purchase and negotiation of diamonds and coloured gemstones from an array of suppliers and organizing their delivery to internal and external workshops. Our department worked closely with the logistics team to provide support for international shipments of high value goods partnering with security companies.One of the aspects I enjoyed the most was working with the Company Founder and the Creative Director to come up with alternative/lesser known gemstone materials for high end watch and jewellery projects.
