About Farid Baig

Sourcing and Supply Chain Manager. Outdoors Enthusiast. I work hard and play harder. I can help you identify and drive cost optimization opportunities over the week, then when I return to work on Monday I can tell you about this wicked hike I completed over the weekend. Life is about balance and I am keen on finding that balance. As a Strategic Sourcing Manager, I have experience in driving end to end Procurement process, from understanding business requirements to drafting and managing RFPs and negotiating with suppliers all the way from reviewing contracts through contract execution. I have helped multiple Fortune 500 organizations develop supply chain strategy, identify cost reduction opportunities and manages vendor relationships across various categories. Having worked in industries as varied as Telecom, CPG and Technology, I believe that by working closely and collaborating with different business units, the sourcing team can add significant value to the organization's bottom line. As an outdoors enthusiast, I have hiked all over the world from the Alps to the Andes. I have completed the Tour du Mont Blanc in the Alps, the Cordillera Huayhash in the Andes, the Alta Via 1 in the Dolomites and the Rockwall in the Canadian Rockies. I am looking for my next adventure and if you have the right opportunity, I would be excited to join your organization.
