Doug Whitefield

I’m a detail-oriented and adaptable supply chain professional with a strong foundation in procurement, forecasting and logistics coordination. Currently at Azelis Australia, I manage end-to-end import logistics, including sea, air and courier freight, supplier coordination and ERP-driven data management. My role demands precision, agility and excellent stakeholder communication to ensure efficient product delivery and cost control across the supply chain. With a background in high-end hospitality, I bring a people-first mindset, operational discipline and the ability to thrive in fast-paced, changing environments. I’ve led large service teams and designed and implemented innovative beverage programs across multiple venues - experience that translates directly into managing vendors, solving problems under pressure and staying one step ahead in complex operations. I’m comfortable getting into the detail - whether that’s looking at stock trends, working with freight forwarders or helping refine planning processes to keep things running smoothly.
