Freelancer profile translated to English.

Description

10 years of strategic purchasing in large account environments, in France and Canada.

I have worked both in companies and in consulting - at Agile Buyer in Paris, then at KLB in Montreal - which has taught me to adapt quickly to different contexts and to be operational from the first weeks of an assignment.

I have worked on various categories - IT (Software, Hardware, Cloud), Packaging, Raw Materials, Industrial Supplies - in public and private environments: Hydro-Québec, Groupe La Poste, Haribo. What interests me in each assignment is understanding the real stakes before proposing anything.

I am comfortable with the entire purchasing cycle: category strategy, complex tenders, negotiation, contracting, supplier management. I have a good knowledge of public markets and associated regulatory constraints.

I provide support or replacement, integrating quickly into your teams. I work in French, English, and even Italian if requested.
