Procurement Manager - Footwear components | Luxury industry @ Hermès
About
I have been working for 4 years at Hermès within the footwear division, specializing in supply management. I currently lead a team of 4 supply coordinators handling leather, metal parts, components, and packaging, with the goal of ensuring material availability in alignment with development and industrial milestones. My daily responsibilities combine a strategic vision — defining supply strategies, stock policies, supplier selection and evaluation — alongside overseeing operational flows: orders, stock coverage, and supplier performance. I place strong emphasis on data reliability and management tools. I contributed to the creation of Power BI dashboards shared with senior management to proactively identify supply risks across the entire scope. I am eager to continue growing within demanding, product-centric organizations where supply chain plays a key role in overall performance.
