Freelancer profile translated to English.

Description

With a 360° vision, I have been immersed in B2C and B2B customer service since childhood.

My 14 years of experience provide me with real expertise in customer and supplier approaches across various market types.

Specializing in the automotive networks for 8 years, I also know how to adapt. I also managed the purchasing and logistics for a professional cycling team, taking them from 30th to 21st in the world rankings in 2 years.

Leading a project and making it advance with the teams is much more rewarding than writing it down and not seeing it progress.

I pay particular attention to working with the teams and passing on my vision to them to develop their skills.

My main areas of intervention are

Project management for optimization and/or transformation

Operational management and monitoring of capex and opex purchases

Team management.

Purchasing:

Proposal, deployment, and monitoring of purchasing strategies

Negotiation and contract monitoring.

Implementation of a legal framework

Sourcing

Structural

Determining needs

Writing specifications, calls for tenders, and tools.

Looking forward to discussing.
