As Coordinator, Procurement & Contracts, I coordinate and oversee procurement and contract management activities to ensure alignment with organizational objectives, regulatory requirements, and industry standards. I develop, review, and negotiate contract and procurement packages, ensuring compliance with company policies while safeguarding commercial and operational interests. I manage contracts throughout their full lifecycle, including administration, performance monitoring, risk allocation, and dispute resolution. By identifying and mitigating contractual and procurement risks, I help ensure that obligations are clearly defined, properly executed, and effectively managed. I collaborate closely with project managers, engineers, legal, finance, and suppliers to ensure contracts meet business and project requirements. In leading and coordinating the supply chain team, I provide strategic guidance and operational oversight to drive efficiency and continuous improvement. I manage supplier and contractor relationships, monitor performance, resolve procurement-related issues, and identify opportunities for vendor development and cost optimization. I also support budget preparation related to procurement and contracts and ensure proper contract close-out, including fulfillment of obligations, resolution of disputes, and documentation of lessons learned. Through structured reporting on contract status, performance metrics, and risk assessments, I promote transparency and informed decision-making, while upholding the highest ethical, regulatory, and governance standards in procurement and contract management.
