I have gained strong skills and practical experience of Services purchasing.
In my current position, with GDF SUEZ, I'm in charge of defining and implementing a global purchasing strategy on Training and Recruitment services for France, Belgium and The Netherlands.
As a Professional Services Buyer in La Banque Postale's Group, my position involved:
=> Being in charge of end to end purchasing process from sourcing to following up contracts implementation and managing suppliers performance, on a large range of fields (i.e. Marketing researches, Strategic and Organisational Assistance, Project Management Consultancy, Human Resources Consultancy, Training, E-learning, etc.)
=> Working with my internal stakeholders (Accounting Department, Marketing Department, HR Department, etc.) in order to identify the best purchasing strategies to fulfill their needs.
=> Negotiating with suppliers to achieve successful savings accomplishments
=> Maintaining good relationships with current suppliers as well as sourcing new ones within my scope.
A part of my mission was also to define and monitor a strategy for sustainable Puchasing.
At this point in my career, I'm aiming to broaden my competencies scope to others non-production categories and I am interested in a trasversal Purchasing position abroad. So, I'm looking for good opportunities suitable with my career aspirations..
