Panamá, Panama
I've spent 12+ years at Procter & Gamble leading complex business transformation across Latin America, at the intersection of innovation program management, supply chain transformation, and strategic sourcing. I've delivered $30M+ in revenue through end-to-end innovation for major P&G brands, $17M+ in cost savings through strategic sourcing and supply chain optimization, and managed $25M+ in annual spend — operating across hyperinflationary and volatile markets with lean budgets, complex regulations, and global/regional supply networks. Throughout my career, I've worked with General Managers, VPs, and functional heads — aligning senior stakeholders, managing risk, and navigating change in volatile and fast-moving environments with cross-functional organizations. What I do well: take ambiguous, high-stakes situations and turn them into structured execution plans, align them with senior leadership and then deliver them. I'm currently exploring senior program management, supply chain transformation, innovation execution, and strategic sourcing leadership roles in Panama and internationally. Open to connecting with recruiters, peers, and business leaders.
