About
With nearly 20 years in strategic procurement leadership, I specialise in building procurement functions from the ground up and delivering enterprise-wide value. My experience spans 40+ spend categories and multiple industries, enabling me to quickly identify opportunities, drive process efficiency, and embed best-practice ways of working. I’ve led major digital procurement transformations—selecting and implementing technology, redesigning processes, and upskilling teams to maximise adoption and impact. I’m passionate about innovation and about creating procurement environments that are strategic, user-focused, and built for long-term success. Known for mentoring and inspiring teams, I work to position procurement as a trusted partner to the business. My goal is always the same: to elevate the end-user experience and deliver smarter, more strategic outcomes across the organisation.
