My experience covers 8 years in the field of Procurement & Supply Chain Management, mostly from Procurement, on Sourcing, Contracting, Project Management and Category Management positions. This is backed my educational background - I've got degrees in Economics (BSc), Finance & Accounting (MSc) and Procurement & Supply Chain Management (CIPS Professional Degree). Going into details, I was involved in procurement sourcing, commercial and contract negotiations, market research, various aspects of analysis (supplier, price, quality, sustainability, etc.) category management, supplier & stakeholder relationship management, procurement value engineering, project management and many more. I possess knowledge of cosmetics, pharmaceutical and facility management industries. What is more, from the procurement perspective, I worked with categories/areas such as manufacturing & warehousing (CAPEX, forklift trucks, warehousing logistics, etc.), packaging (cartons, labels, leaflets, corrugated board, pallets, drums, shrink wrap, minor packaging components), freight & logistics, scientific & business information (databases, datasets, journals, access licenses), process chemicals & excipients and all kinds of soft & hard facility management services, such as cleaning, subcontracting (laundry, washroom, catering, landscaping, waste management, technical services, capital projects and so on). I am also aware of elements belonging to sustainability in diversity. During my career I worked with almost all applications belonging to Microsoft Office Suite (Sharepoint, PowerPoint, Excel, Word, PowerShell, Project), procurement software (applied in almost all aspect of procurement work, such as data analytics, sourcing, contracting, purchase-to-pay, contract management, risk management, supplier management, sustainability), such as IBM products, SAP Ariba, Sievo, GEP, Coupa, Scanmarket, Jaggaer, Oracle, Hiperos. I provide reliable support in almost all elements of procurement profession with deep understanding of the nature of the business itself, working closely with other stakeholders, finding common grounds and delivering the best value possible. I am also an expert in procurement software, being actual user of numerous tools with a record of being key/power user of few of them. In my freelancing journey (on and outside of this platform) I participated in projects concerning: - sourcing for raw materials, products and services, - developing sourcing and procurement category strategies, - procurement proofreading and ghostwriting, - evaluating procurement tools & solutions available on the market, - consulting related to my areas of expertise (providing a procurement input or intelligence), - supporting negotiations and contracting process with local vendors.

💬 Need reliable suppliers, stable deliveries, and lower costs? I fix that. I’m Sebastian Jarczyński, a Procurement & Sourcing Expert with 11+ years of hands-on experience in global supply chains, supplier sourcing, and cost optimization across Europe and Asia. I help companies build supplier ecosystems that work — fast, profitable, and scalable. From concept to mass production, I manage the entire process: supplier hunt, vetting, RFQs, negotiations, samples, contracts, and logistics setup. 🚀 My Approach: Procurement as a Growth Engine Most businesses treat procurement as a cost center. I turn it into a profit center. I don’t just “find suppliers.” I build procurement systems that cut costs, reduce risk, and give your business control over quality, timelines, and scalability. You get the complete setup: ✅ verified suppliers (Europe / Asia) ✅ clean, documented process ✅ measurable savings (typically 10–25%) ✅ better lead times & reduced supply risk 🧩 Core Services 1️⃣ Global Supplier Sourcing & Vetting • Research and verify suppliers (Europe, China, India, Vietnam, Eastern Europe) • RFQs / RFPs, offer comparison, sample coordination • Due diligence, compliance, and technical validation 2️⃣ Procurement Process Design & Optimization • Building procurement departments from scratch • Standardizing procedures, KPIs, tools, and workflows • Setting up e-sourcing and contract management systems 3️⃣ Cost Optimization & Contract Renegotiation • Strategic spend analysis, cost breakdowns • Supplier consolidation and cost modeling • Contract audits and renegotiation strategy 4️⃣ Product Development Sourcing (OEM / Private Label) • Full sourcing: from concept → prototype → mass production • Supplier alignment on quality, MOQ, packaging & AQL • Perfect for e-commerce, D2C brands, and industrial OEMs 5️⃣ Procurement Consulting & Fractional CPO • Advisory for companies in transformation or rapid scaling • Interim management of sourcing departments • Strategic roadmap and supplier diversification 🌍 Industries & Product Areas I’ve sourced and optimized across: • FMCG, Food & Beverages • Furniture & Home Equipment • Industrial Automation & Robotics • Packaging, Plastics, and Metal Components • Cosmetics & Supplements (B2B & Private Label) • Electronics, HVAC, and Automotive components Projects delivered across Europe (PL, DE, IT, NL, FR) and Asia (CN, IN, VN) — working directly with manufacturers, exporters, and OEM suppliers. 🏢 Track Record Over the past decade, I’ve delivered results for companies such as: Mastercard – Procurement Management Advisor (APAC) Bunge Polska – Procurement Site Lead (production plant) T-Mobile Polska – Strategic Buyer IT (EMEA) Inntec Technology – Global Supply Chain Manager Multiple private clients – cost reduction & sourcing system setup Typical results: ✔ 10–25% cost reduction within 3–6 months ✔ 15+ verified suppliers sourced per project ✔ 100% documentation and compliance ✔ Process standardization saving 8–10 hours/week per buyer 💡 How I Work I treat every project like it’s my own business. You’ll always know the plan, the timeline, and the outcome. When you hire me, you don’t get a “freelancer” — you get a procurement department in a single person: strategist, negotiator, analyst, and executor. I build relationships with suppliers that last — and deliver data-backed results that management teams can trust. 🔧 Toolbox & Expertise ERP: SAP MM, SRM, Oracle, Coupa, Ariba E-sourcing: e-Connect, Trans.eu, custom RFQ sheets Project Management: Asana, Trello, ClickUp, Notion Analytics: Excel PowerQuery, Google Sheets, Power BI Negotiation: Strategic + TCO-based + multi-round frameworks Languages: English (C2), Polish (native), basic Italian 🧭 Work Style • Transparent communication — daily or weekly reporting • 100% documentation — all offers, RFQs, and notes shared • NDAs always respected — discretion is non-negotiable • Flexible time zones — Europe / Asia / Middle East / US overlap ⚙️ Engagement Options You can hire me for: 💼 One-time sourcing / RFQ projects – from $750 📈 Procurement transformation & cost audit – from $950 🤝 Long-term partnership (Fractional CPO / Retainer) – monthly agreement Hourly rate: $50/h (accurate, transparent, no hidden costs) 📞 Let’s talk If you want to stabilize your supply chain, find real suppliers, or reduce spend — I’ll show you the roadmap and execute it myself.
