Every morning begins with reviewing purchase requests, checking supplier updates, and ensuring all project requirements align with budgets and timelines. The rest of the day is a dynamic mix of comparing quotes, negotiating rates, raising purchase orders, tracking deliveries, and communicating with site teams to make sure every material arrives exactly when it’s needed.

𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗱𝗼 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗴𝗲𝘁 𝘂𝗽 𝘁𝗼 𝘄𝗵𝗲𝗻 𝘆𝗼𝘂’𝗿𝗲 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝗮𝘁 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸?
Travelling around the world, enjoying time with friends and family, and recharging in nature especially in the mountains. I love discovering new cultures and hidden places, capturing moments through photos, and finding peace in the outdoors. Whether it’s a long hike or a weekend getaway, it’s all about staying grounded and keeping a healthy balance.

𝗠𝗼𝘀𝘁 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗱 𝗺𝗼𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝘀𝗼 𝗳𝗮𝗿?
Working on the Ham Close and Green Quarter projects from the very beginning and being part of their journey as they take shape. Seeing how these major developments progress and knowing I’ve contributed to the groundwork has been incredibly motivating. It’s exciting to watch something so significant grow from early planning stages into real, tangible results.

𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗺𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁 𝘀𝘂𝗿𝗽𝗿𝗶𝘀𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗮𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗕𝘂𝘆𝗲𝗿 𝗿𝗼𝗹𝗲?
It’s not just about ordering materials. It’s strategy, relationship building, analysing lead times, and making cost effective decisions that directly impact project success.

𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝘆 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝘆 𝗰𝗮𝗹𝗺 𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿 𝗽𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘀𝘂𝗿𝗲:
Forward planning, clear communication, and the ability to prioritise on the fly. A good playlist doesn’t hurt either especially on busy deadline days.

𝗔𝗱𝘃𝗶𝗰𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝗮𝗻𝘆𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘀𝗶𝗱𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗮 𝗰𝗮𝗿𝗲𝗲𝗿 𝗶𝗻 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗰𝘂𝗿𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗼𝗿 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘀𝘁𝗿𝘂𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻?
Ask questions. Be curious. Build relationships. Procurement isn’t just paperwork it’s understanding the bigger picture, and your influence on a project is bigger than you think.

𝗗𝗲𝘀𝗰𝗿𝗶𝗯𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗷𝗼𝗯 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗿𝗲𝗲 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗱𝘀:
Challenging, engaging, motivating.

𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗱𝗿𝗶𝘃𝗲𝘀 𝘆𝗼𝘂?
The satisfaction of securing the right materials at the right price, supporting the team, and knowing every decision helps keep a project moving forward.
