Singapore Airlines • Fulltime

Mar 2024 - Mar 2026 • 2 yrs

During my tenure within the Singapore Airlines group (SIAEP), I specialized in technical procurement and end-to-end supply chain optimization for a leading aviation maintenance facility. I leveraged my background in Aeronautical Engineering to bridge the gap between technical requirements and commercial procurement strategy. Core Responsibilities & Achievements: Strategic Sourcing & Tendering: Successfully led and executed large-scale Freight Forwarder Tenders. I managed a competitive portfolio of 10+ global logistics vendors, ensuring the selection of partners who met strict aviation reliability and cost-efficiency benchmarks. Technical Procurement: Managed a complex inventory of aviation chemicals, consumables, and specialized aircraft components. I ensured 100% compliance with international aviation safety standards and Bureau of Customs regulatory requirements. Advanced Data Analytics: Developed sophisticated Excel 'Master Sets' for RFI/RFQ comparisons. I implemented dynamic lead-time modeling and inventory min-max provisioning formulas to eliminate stockouts of critical materials. Vendor Negotiation: Acted as the primary point of contact for supplier negotiations, securing favorable pricing, reducing Minimum Order Quantities (MOQs), and improving Service Level Agreements (SLAs). AOG (Aircraft on Ground) Management: Supported time-critical logistics to ensure that maintenance operations never faced downtime due to supply chain bottlenecks. I am an expert at transforming complex data into actionable procurement strategies. My approach combines engineering precision with a deep understanding of global logistics, making me a versatile partner for businesses looking to streamline their operations and maximize their bottom line.
