Freelancer profile translated to English.

Description

With a Master's degree in International Affairs and Purchasing, I have 8 years of experience in direct and indirect purchasing: intellectual services, banking services, packaging, and food products.

I have worked within major CAC 40 groups in the banking and energy sectors. More recently, I have worked with smaller structures that are less mature in terms of purchasing.

These various experiences have allowed me to acquire solid skills in project management, sourcing, negotiation, and have strengthened my adaptability in diverse environments.

I have had the opportunity to work on high-stakes projects within the framework of group restructurings, subsidiary divestitures, relocations, implementation of new management tools, and the redefinition of purchasing strategy and the overall functioning of a company.

I have managed end-to-end purchasing projects, implemented several supplier references (consulting, functional assistance, banking services), optimized various processes, and built trusting and lasting relationships with my internal and external partners.

Naturally curious and sociable, I am interested in intervening within dynamic and stimulating structures on various purchasing and project management projects.

I would be delighted to discuss my experiences and acquired skills further, as well as the added value I can bring to your project.
