    Senior Procurement Executive
    May 2026
    Penang Island Penang1 to 2 years in the role, former employee
    strengthened my coordination, and problem-solving skills through managing procurement operations.
    The good thingsWorking here was a valuable and rewarding experience. I enjoyed working in a fast-paced healthcare environment where I could collaborate with different departments and suppliers to support hospital operations efficiently. The role strengthened my procurement, negotiation, and problem-solving skills while giving me broader exposure to hospital operations and supply chain management. I also appreciated the opportunities for professional growth, responsibility, and continuous learning throughout my time with the hospital.
    The challengesOne of the challenges was managing urgent procurement requests and coordinating across multiple departments in a fast-paced healthcare environment. Some processes could be further improved through better system integration, clearer communication between departments, and more standardized workflows to enhance operational efficiency. Strengthening planning and coordination for procurement and inventory management would also help reduce last-minute requests and improve overall workflow effectiveness.

    Jun 2019
    1 to 2 years in the role, current employee
    Good place to learn and develop
    The good thingsI already knows what I wanted when I first joined the company, with a plan in mind, I worked hard and did my best. I also took the initiative and ask my manager to send me to training. My boss always supported me. Having a good boss is the main reason why I worked here.
    The challengesMost of the departments is understaffed, so do expect to multitask and handle multiple responsibilities. There is no pantry for staffs to eat, office staff will need to eat on their desk. Nurses and front line workers will need to eat in cafeteria which is not really a big place and share the place with patients.
