تفاصيل الوظيفة
Dear Hiring Manager,
I am writing to express my strong interest in procurement and supply chain opportunities within your organisation. I am an MBA-qualified Procurement and Supply Chain professional currently based in Dubai, UAE, with hands-on experience across end-to-end procurement operations, vendor management, supplier negotiation, cost control, and supply chain coordination within the luxury services sector.
In my current role as Administrative and Procurement Executive at Star Luxure Tourism, Dubai, I independently manage the full procure-to-pay (P2P) cycle — from vendor identification, RFQ issuance, and competitive bid evaluation through to purchase order processing, invoice reconciliation, and supplier performance monitoring. I have built and maintained strong relationships with multiple vendors, negotiated service terms and pricing to achieve cost-efficient outcomes, and delivered high-quality procurement services to a diverse portfolio of international corporate clients across Russian and European markets.
To support operational decision making, I designed and maintained procurement expense tracking dashboards in MS Excel and Google Sheets, processing and reconciling supplier bills on a bi-monthly basis to monitor vehicle costs, track expenditure patterns, and identify cost variances. This hands-on experience in procurement data management and operational reporting has strengthened my analytical thinking, attention to detail, and ability to translate raw data into meaningful business insights.
My consulting engagement at Pro Flow further broadened my supply chain capabilities. As part of a cross-functional team, I contributed to the end-to-end design and delivery of a Supply Chain Management System for a European client. My responsibilities included supporting business requirements gathering, contributing to a Software Requirements Specification (SRS), assisting in procurement process mapping and workflow optimization, and executing User Acceptance Testing (UAT) to ensure the final solution met all agreed client requirements. This experience sharpened my ability to analyze supply chain processes, identify inefficiencies, and communicate findings clearly to cross-functional stakeholders — skills I carry directly into my procurement practice.
Throughout both roles, I have demonstrated the ability to work independently with minimal supervision as well as collaboratively within cross-functional teams. I am proactive, detail-oriented, and committed to continuous improvement in everything I do. I thrive in fast-paced environments where accuracy, compliance, and timely delivery are non-negotiable.
I am actively seeking entry to mid-level roles in procurement, supply chain coordination, purchasing, or supply chain analysis where I can apply my existing skills, continue developing professionally, and contribute meaningfully to organisational growth.
Key strengths I bring to any procurement or supply chain role include:
End-to-end procure-to-pay (P2P) cycle management
RFQ and RFI development, evaluation and analysis
Supplier sourcing, onboarding and performance monitoring
Purchase order processing and invoice reconciliation
Vendor negotiation and contract management
Procurement expense tracking and cost control
Supply chain process mapping and workflow optimization
Business requirements analysis and documentation
Strong MS Excel, Google Sheets and ERP system awareness
Cross-functional stakeholder communication and management
Analytical thinking, problem solving and attention to detail
Multilingual — English (Fluent), Tamil, Malayalam, German (A2)
I hold an MBA in Supply Chain Management from Manipal University (2025), complemented by certifications in SAP ERP Fundamentals, Supply Chain Management, and Database Management. I am currently based in Dubai on a valid UAE residence visa and am available to join immediately.
I would welcome the opportunity to discuss how my background, skills and enthusiasm align with your organisation's procurement or supply chain requirements.
Yours sincerely,
Akshaya Viharian Aswathy
Dubai, UAE
