About Romane

I support companies in optimizing their direct and indirect purchasing, with both an analytical and human approach.

Analytical, because I have 8 years of experience in project, strategic, and operational purchasing. I bring complete expertise: sourcing, negotiation, supplier management, and purchasing strategy.
Human, because I am also a certified personal and professional coach, which allows me to foster cohesion, communication, and performance within purchasing teams, and to strengthen my negotiation skills.

I undertake transformation, reinforcement, or structuring missions for the purchasing function, in France or remotely.

My goal: to deliver concrete and sustainable results for your organization, while developing the human potential at the heart of projects.
