About Christopher

With 10 years of experience in Purchasing, this has given me the opportunity to evolve in various sectors. I have mainly worked on so-called indirect purchases but also on production purchases, at the heart of the company's business.
Having worked at different levels of maturity of Purchasing services, I am therefore able to support a company in setting up and/or developing its Purchasing performance.

Project examples:
o European interim call for tenders: migration from classic interim to Onsite solution
o Intellectual services (Consulting, CRM project, E-procurement...)
o Production outsourcing (aluminum bars)
o IT Purchases (Soft & Hard)
o Management of food subcontracting contracts (ingredients, raw materials and finished products)
o Management of the industrial performance of subcontractors
o European call for tenders: lifting service
o Team management
