ABOUT ANDRES SILES
As a Mechanical Engineer, I never imagined that I was going to develop such an extraordinary passion for Procurement and Supply Chain. However, after more than 25 years of experiencing it, I appreciate how my technical background has broadened my perspective on procurement over the years, allowing me to better understand, support, enrich and even challenge internal customer technical requirements and supplier offers, alike. I have enjoyed my positions throughout my career in Procurement, Supply Chain, and Contracts Management producing savings, efficiencies, and growth for World-Class companies such as Mercedes-Benz, CNH, Flowserve, SNC Lavalin, and, during the last eight years, Emerson Automation Solutions. Today, I have become an insightful, visionary, and strategic Procurement Professional who is ready to take on the next challenge in my career.My domain knowledge includes- I see Procurement as a means to create synergies between companies, not just commercial exchanges- I can align, lead, and grow world-class procurement teams of any given size to make great things together as a true Procurement Team- Then, as a Procurement Team we can find superb suppliers and convert them into true partners by building solid-long-term relationships with them- As partners with our suppliers, we can truly collaborate and boost our mutual strengths to find ways to exceed our company’s and our mutual customer’s expectations- I have an extraordinary ability to connect with people and I pride myself in being not just a manager, but a true mentor who can help his team to achieve their goals- I’ve been told I am a wordsmith, with the ability to write powerful, convincing messages which I frequently use as part of my negotiation strategiesWhen I am not at work, I strive to feed myself with things that make me a better asset to the world, I exercise thirty minutes daily, I am one of those who still read printed books, I enjoy playing my guitar, I cherish face to face interactions, I believe in family, love, and God and I am lucky to live in beautiful Calgary, Canada.
