Juan Carlos Velasquez
Regional Purchasing Director Americas @ Giesecke+Devrient
About
I am a mechanical engineer with deep expertise in procurement, strategic sourcing, and supplier negotiations across multiple industries. My background combines hands-on industry experience with strong academic grounding in finance and business, allowing me to bridge technical, commercial, and financial perspectives. I have led complex sourcing initiatives, negotiated critical supplier agreements, and supported leadership teams in making high-impact decisions on cost, risk, and long-term value. I specialize in turning procurement complexity into clear insight — helping organizations strengthen their negotiating position, improve commercial outcomes, and protect bottom-line performance.
