Tamara Satanik

I'm a supply chain and procurement professional with over 9 years of experience in global sourcing, purchasing, inventory planning, supplier management, and operations.

My background includes managing approximately $20 million in annual procurement spending, 25+ suppliers, 5,000+ SKUs, and over 30 million units annually. I've worked across the full supply chain, from supplier selection, pricing negotiations, and purchase order management to replenishment planning, production capacity, warehousing, distribution, logistics, quality testing, and compliance.

I have a strong track record of improving supplier performance, reducing lead times, resolving supply disruptions, and building more efficient processes. I'm experienced with SAP ERP, advanced Excel, KPI reporting, and working cross-functionally to keep operations running smoothly.

I'm currently exploring remote opportunities in supply chain management, procurement, strategic sourcing, buying, planning, vendor management, and operations where I can bring both hands-on execution and a broader understanding of how the supply chain works.
