💬The TAF4ALL team's review

This candidate stands out for a genuinely end-to-end grounding in customs and transit that few supply chain profiles can match: hands-on experience as a transit agent at Kany Logistique et Services, a customs declarant internship at Sitrat-Mali using the Asycuda World system, and even a stint inside the Douane Malienne's economic regimes office. That combination means this person understands both sides of the border, from preparing and reconciling import intentions, insurance, BESC, BL and transit orders to calculating duties and taxes and following files through to the release order. Employers hiring for a Senior Supply Chain Specialist role would gain someone who has already challenged freight forwarders, suppliers and carriers on procedures and deadlines, and who pairs formal credentials (a DUTS in Logistics Management and a BT2 in Customs) with a proven focus on cost optimization and on-time delivery. We see a profile that can step into import-export coordination and customs compliance with minimal ramp-up and real credibility with both internal teams and external partners.
