Background

About Alison Austin

I had a long and successful career with my previous company, holding several key positions in sales and procurement/supply chain for a high tech telecommunications equipment and services provider. I am always willing to accept new roles and responsibilities and have cross trained in many areas over my career. I’ve managed several key accounts and provided a full variety of account services to streamline support for 18+years in the sales department. Additionally, I have over 10 years of global supply chain support and purchasing management experience. My responsibilities included forecast/planning to purchase order placement all the way through to fulfillment. I had a key role in transitioning to a lean purchasing model working with top stakeholders to reduce costs and expenses without impact to quality. I have supported many departments such as quality, hardware engineering, software support, logistics, repair, finance, information services and office management. My accumulated experience makes me a great candidate for a wide variety of positions. I hope to find a position that will utilize my skills and experience for a mutually beneficial relationship.
