Rasul Alizada

Procurement Specialist

I hold a Bachelor’s and Master’s degree in Finance and have built my professional career in the hospitality sector, currently working as a Procurement Specialist at Lankaran Hotel and Resort Company LLC (Tabia Group). I joined the company in February 2023 as a Receiving Officer, where I gained hands-on experience in goods receiving, documentation, inventory coordination, and ensuring that delivered products met the required standards. In July 2023, I transitioned to the position of Procurement Coordinator, where I developed strong expertise in procurement processes, supplier communication, tender procedures, requests for quotations (RFQs), contract terms, and price analysis. Since August 2025, I have been working as a Procurement Specialist, taking on broader responsibilities in procurement planning and execution. In my current role, I actively participate in the preparation and management of the hotel’s CAPEX and OPEX budgets and am responsible for executing related procurement activities in line with operational requirements and budgetary considerations. My responsibilities include coordinating purchasing processes, obtaining and evaluating supplier quotations, conducting price comparisons and analysis, communicating and negotiating with suppliers, evaluating commercial and contractual terms, and supporting the timely and cost-effective procurement of goods and services. Through my progressive experience in receiving, procurement coordination, and procurement specialization, I have developed a comprehensive understanding of the end-to-end procurement cycle within the hospitality industry. I am a responsible, analytical, detail-oriented, and team-oriented professional with strong organizational, communication, negotiation, and problem-solving skills. My academic background in Finance further strengthens my ability to approach procurement decisions from both operational and financial perspectives, with a focus on cost efficiency, budget control, and value for the organization.
