About Stefania

I help companies navigate complex contract negotiations and procurement challenges — particularly in the renewable energy, infrastructure, and technology sectors across Europe.

With 5+ years managing high-value commercial contracts (up to €200M), I've worked with global players including Huawei Technologies and Sungrow Renewables, handling everything from EPC contract drafting and negotiation, to cross-border procurement strategy, risk mitigation, and regulatory compliance.

What I bring to your project:
✔ End-to-end contract lifecycle management (drafting, negotiation, execution, dispute resolution)
✔ Procurement strategy and vendor/supplier management
✔ Risk and compliance advisory for large-scale infrastructure and energy deals
✔ Cross-functional collaboration with legal, sales, and technical teams
✔ Fluent in international commercial frameworks; strong English + Romanian

I work best with renewable energy developers, EPC contractors, CleanTech companies, and businesses expanding into European markets who need senior-level contract expertise without a full-time hire.

Available for contract review engagements, ongoing retainer advisory, or project-based procurement consulting. Let's talk about how I can protect your commercial interests and move your deals forward.
