PROFILE

A pleasant, professional and proficient Purchasing and Contracts Manager, Receptionist, Operations Manager, Personal Assistant, Administration and a Customer service manager, who has a long track record in a diverse number of industries. I have been involved in Supply Chain for over the better part of 19 years,

I understand the finances of the company from my years spent working at all levels with sales teams and the accounting teams . My approach to operations starts with a focus on our clients, and quality of service is a top priority in all discussions. When it comes to people, I am a strong believer in leadership and empowering people to take ownership of their positions and processes. I believe effective communication is key to leadership, and I strive to create a positive and motivating environment that nurtures future leaders and high performers. Lastly, I am committed to the highest standards of professionalism in the industry and I aim to ensure that those standards and values are passed through every aspect of company operations.
