About Marie Solène

Reliable, concise, and adaptable, I am passionate about project purchasing and demanding technical environments. I have managed complex purchases ranging from needs expression to contracting, in coordination with project, quality, and engineering teams, while optimizing costs and supplier performance.

My background has allowed me to manage various purchases: machinery, IT, maintenance, R&D, packaging, and supplies for industrial and luxury projects, with a total budget of several million euros and rigorous supplier performance monitoring. I have led tenders, created and managed supplier panels, and handled crisis situations to secure supplies, while generating measurable savings.

In parallel, my four years of sales experience in coffee sales have allowed me to develop a real sense of interpersonal skills, negotiation, and customer listening, which I now apply in my purchasing roles to understand the needs of teams and suppliers.

Curious, rigorous, and responsive, I enjoy analyzing, structuring, and continuously improving purchasing processes to create a concrete impact on projects. I undertake assignments in purchasing support, function structuring, supplier management, or cost optimization, with autonomy and pragmatism.

If my profile resonates with your needs, I hope we will have the opportunity to discuss and see how I can contribute to the success of your projects.
