About

I'm a strategic supply chain leader with nearly two decades experience shaping global supply chains to be competitive, ethical and efficient. My career spans sourcing, production planning, contract management, supplier engagement and sustainability - giving me a holistic view of how supply chains drive business performance and positive impact. Starting with operational roles, I built a strong foundation in planning and purchasing efficiency enabled by master data driven processes. As I progressed, I took on increasingly strategic responsibilities - developing processes, inventory optimization, supplier relationships and driving cost reduction initiatives while upholding high quality standards to now developing supplier due diligence processes, corporate compliance processes and embedding sustainability into supplier requirements in a global context. A key focus of my recent work is ensuring human rights in complex supply chains, particularly through subcontractor management and impact assessments. These efforts have led to tangible process improvements and risk mitigation across global operations. My work includes ensuring compliance to sustainability regulations and reporting requirements, and developing processes that enable transparent and proactive supply chains. Key achievements: 💰 Delivered multiple cost saving projects creating savings of over 100k€ through supplier collaboration and strategic sourcing. ⚖️ Lead global sustainability audit program and human right and social impact assessments, improving compliance and reducing supply chain risk. 👷🏻‍♀️ Developed subcontractor management practices to ensure ethical business practices and human rights in complex supply chains. 🧰 Renewed Supplier Code of Conduct and supporting stakeholders to align with increased sustainability requirements. 📊 Providing strategic analysis influencing external policy and mitigating geopolitical risks in the supply chain I'm known for my calm, analytical, and holistic approach. I enjoy working in international environment and am driven by the opportunity to lead and develop supply chain strategies that create long-term value for people, planet and business. My dream role is one shaping sustainable supply chain strategy, managing risks in a global environment and building supplier partnerships that drive global competitiveness with a human-centric approach.
