About

I started my career at LyondellBasell raw material procurement department in April 2007 after finishing my studies. While I was responsible for the execution of procurement strategies at the beginning, I quickly became more and more responsible for different commodities. This was when I realized that strategic procurement is my passion, and that this is what I want to do. 7 years later, I am working as a Commodity Manager for Additives, Colors and Process Chemicals at LyondellBasell, one of the world largest chemical Companies. In this role I am in charge for the global strategy for the mentioned Segments and I am also leading the negotiations with our suppliers around the world. Within this position I am directly responsible for a total Spend in Europe >$80MM.
