Senior Manager: Strategic Sourcing, African Bank

Speaker Bio

I am a Senior Sourcing Manager at African Bank, specializing in Category Management within the financial services sector. My areas of expertise are broad ranging but not limited to the following categories, Corporate Services, MRO, Logistics, CRES, and Banking Operations.

 With 14 years extensive experience supporting both Tier 1 financial institutions and leading FMCG organizations, I have developed a strong track record of delivering strategic sourcing solutions that drive value, efficiency, and sustainable business outcomes. Prior to joining African Bank, I spent nine years working within a global financial processing organization and a Tier 1 South African bank, where I gained deep insights into global markets, with a particular focus on Sub-Saharan Africa.

These experiences have provided me with a practical and comprehensive understanding of the opportunities and challenges faced by small and emerging suppliers when integrating into large corporate environments. As a result, I am passionate about enabling supplier development and fostering more inclusive and sustainable supply chains.

I am a strong advocate for the transformation of procurement from a traditional governance function into a strategic business partner that is fully integrated across the organization’s value chain. My focus is on leveraging technology, data-driven insights, innovation, and strategic collaboration to build resilient procurement capabilities that deliver measurable value, enhance business performance, and support long-term organizational objectives.
