Eng. Wilson A.

As the Head of Procurement at Landmark Group, I led the procurement strategy and planning for one of the largest retail and hospitality conglomerates in the Middle East, Africa, and India. I managed the purchase agreements, contracts, negotiation, inventory management, and supplier relations for over 40 brands and 2,000 stores, achieving preferential pricing, customer satisfaction, and loyalty. I have 14+ years of industry experience in procurement operations, with a strong background in mechanical engineering and business administration. I hold a Master of Business Administration (MBA) degree from the Institute of Business Management Studies, a High School Diploma in Mechanical Engineering from ITES, and a Certified International Procurement Professional/Manager (CIPM) credential from the International Purchasing and Supply Chain Management Institute (IPSCMI). I am also pursuing a Certificated Supply Chain Manager degree from IPSCMI, expected to graduate in Oct 2031. I am skilled in vendor sourcing, problem-solving, and analytical skills, which enable me to identify and evaluate the best suppliers, vendors, and third-party partners for the organization. I also excel in developing key relationships with stakeholders, clients, and internal teams, ensuring alignment of goals, expectations, and values. I am passionate about finding cost-saving opportunities, managing risk, and optimizing procurement performance, while adhering to ethical standards and best practices.
