- Excellent Follow up (in general)

- Negotiation Skill and Discussion

- Solving Problems

- Build a good relationship with the suppliers, customers and Colleagues.

- Having experience of Finance, Shipping, Logistics and Customs (will be an advantage).

1) Layout is always high on the list of priorities.

2) Try to incorporate some of your biggest achievements into your opening profile.

3) Your ability to collaborate with suppliers, service providers, customers and negotiate win-win contracts to deliver the products and services in a timely and cost efficient manner is critical.

4) Become a Certified Procurement Professional (CPP) if you can and mention it in your resume.
