I currently manage all procurement for Network Telecom ranging from IT software to the Company Fleet. I have introduced a purchasing system that links to the accounts program helping monitor all POs raised and invoiced. Recently I've initiated a new stock control system which enables full traceability of all goods in and outwards. I have made substantial savings in my first 4 months and continue to support the team ensuring a successful purchasing department.

UK Engineering, Dye & Chemical Buyer
-
Oct 2006 - Feb 2014
My job title was UK Engineering, Dye and Chemical Buyer. Within those groups, I was in charge of procuring all the raw materials, precision components and maintaining equipment, dealing with European and International suppliers. The role involved identifying the business needs, surveying markets and potential suppliers, gathering information on availability, quality and price. Challenging suppliers, negotiating contracts and ensuring delivery was my main focus. I was a key part in the Capital Projects team, where I sourced all detailed components, working from Bill of Materials for our European and Indian site. This also involved arranging contractors, sourcing raw materials and price negotiation. My other role was Stock Analysis using MRPs and KPIs. Liaising with both customer and supplier, I would identify areas for improvement to increase efficiency to maintain a consistent, reliable, cost effective production flow. This would include evaluating current stock levels, incorporating consignments and negotiating call offs. Gaining great supplier and customer relations, I ensured the business had a strong, cost effective supply chain. Show less
