Title: Chief Purchasing Officer Company: Procter & Gamble Industry: Manufacturing

Ana’ s appointment as Chief Purchasing Officer at Procter & Gamble in 2020 was the culmination of a career that began in Venezuela in 1988, a journey spanning more than three decades and nearly every discipline that modern supply chain leadership demands. With over twenty years in procurement specifically, she leads a function that touches raw materials, packaging, capital expenditure and the full breadth of P & G’ s global operations. What sets Ana apart is the genuine depth of her organisational understanding. Her career has encompassed Product Supply disciplines, human resources and procurement in a sequence that has given her a genuine 360-degree view of how a global consumer goods enterprise works. That perspective informs a leadership style that is simultaneously strategic and operational. Ana is also a committed champion of inclusion. As leader of P & G’ s Hispanic Affinity Group, she has used her platform to advance representation.
