WORK HISTORY
Project Manager @Mercedes-Benz España
As Project Manager, Global Logistics Procurement at Mercedes-Benz, I spearhead the strategic transport procurement of spare parts, orchestrating supplier collaboration and leveraging in-depth analysis to enhance logistics across diverse international markets (Europe, LatAm, Asia). My role is pivotal in streamlining operations, managing complex stakeholder relationships, and driving digital transformation initiatives.I actively manage transport portfolios exceeding €25 million, consistently achieving significant results. For instance, I\'ve delivered 30% cost reductions through data-driven strategies like optimizing distribution networks (e.g, air-to-road modality change and dedicated routes in Brazil), and achieved 5% cost savings by navigating high-inflation environments and cultural nuances (e.g, Turkey).Utilizing cutting-edge Business Intelligence tools and platforms like MS Power Apps and Power Automate, I meticulously monitor performance metrics and develop internal applications to enhance operational efficiency and automated incident tracking. My proactive leadership in negotiations and problem-solving, coupled with a strong commitment to continuous improvement, ensures operational excellence and reinforces the company\'s market position.
