Bio
Angela Weinberg
I had the pleasure of working with Vilma as her manager for 3 years at GlobeIn, where she worked on projects in product buying and development & design. I wish I had the space to write an essay concerning Vilma’s dedicated, earnest, cooperative, and overall positive work ethic, but in short, Vilma is one of the most efficient learners and dependable employees I’ve ever had the opportunity to work with. Over the years, Vilma advanced from a Customer Service role into the Buying & Merchandising Department, growing into the lead buyer and curator of a multi-million dollar sourcing strategy. Vilma managed hundreds of purchase orders at any given time, negotiated payment terms for each order individually, and maintained relationships with a network of 100+ suppliers around the world. Vilma helped grow the R&D side of the business, specializing in product selection, Artisan Box curation and the project management of newness and sampling. She also sought to understand the efficiency and ethics of the inbound supply chains she ordered from, and did not shy away from working across teams with the Operations and Impact Departments. Not only was Vilma dedicated to the productivity of the company by putting her best foot forward every day, Vilma is also one of the kindest-natured people I know and enters every conversation with the best of intentions and seeks to support others through working well in teams. It was lovely working with Vilma, and it is without hesitation that I recommend Vilma if you are looking for a hard-working team member with experience in buying, merchandising, and product development.
