Hi, I’m a procurement professional with 6 years of experience, and your project immediately caught my attention because supplier sourcing, communication, negotiation, and organized procurement records are areas I’m already familiar with. I can help you identify potential suppliers, communicate professionally, negotiate competitive deals, and maintain clear records of supplier communication and outcomes using Google Sheets and other online tools. With my procurement background, I understand that finding a supplier is only the first step. The real value comes from comparing options carefully, communicating clearly, negotiating effectively, and keeping every detail organized so decisions can be made quickly. I’m fluent in English and comfortable working independently in a remote environment. I can commit up to 20 hours per week during your required working hours. One point I want to be transparent about: I’m not fluent in Chinese. However, I believe my 6 years of procurement experience, strong English communication, and negotiation skills can still bring significant value to your team if Chinese proficiency is flexible for the role. I’d be happy to demonstrate my approach with a small trial task. Best regards, Eka Reezqiana P.S. Are you mainly looking for suppliers in a specific industry or product category? I’d be interested to understand your current sourcing priorities.
