Sandugash Sembinova

I’m a senior IT procurement, contract, and vendor management expert with more than 20 years of experience delivering strategic sourcing, legal clarity, and measurable savings for multinational corporations and fast-growing startups. My core strength is translating complex legal and commercial frameworks into clear, actionable agreements — quickly and pragmatically. I’ve led multimillion-euro contract negotiations, optimized procurement operations across IT, oil & gas, and finance, and trained global teams on vendor risk, data protection, and compliance.

Having worked with clients such as Viterra (Glencore), ENI, Shell, Intertrust, and NIBC Bank—as well as EU-funded innovation projects and accelerators—I also mentor startups on winning enterprise deals and building robust procurement foundations. I am recognized for cross-functional leadership, results-driven transformation, and the ability to align legal detail with business value.

Currently based in Brussels, I am open to remote and hybrid missions across Europe and beyond, aiming to deliver high-impact, agile support to organizations that prize clarity, ethics, and results.
