About Jeff Patrick

I work in procurement and buying, helping companies negotiate better with their vendors and make sound commercial decisions.My background is unconventional. I started out in dentistry, where precision, accountability, and decision-making under constraints were non-negotiable. That foundation shaped how I approach problems: assess quickly, ask the right questions, and act with intent.I later moved into sales, which sharpened my commercial judgment and gave me a clear view of how value is positioned, negotiated, and defended. That combined perspective now informs my work in procurement.In my current role, I manage end-to-end vendor negotiations, working directly with suppliers to improve pricing, strengthen commercial terms, and drive defensible cost savings. The focus is on outcomes that make sense both immediately and long term.I’m drawn to work that values clarity over noise, structure over guesswork, and decisions that hold up.
