Paul-Emanuel Cezar
As a Supply Chain Specialist, Paul is involved in auditing and evaluating organisations under FSC Chain of Custody and PEFC Chain of Custody (CoC) certification schemes. His work focuses on assessing supply chain traceability, ensuring compliance with certification standards, and contributing to increased transparency and responsibility within the forest sector.
Paul is part of the organisation’s forestry team, where he conducts FSC CoC and PEFC CoC certification audits, evaluating the traceability and integrity of forest-based supply chains. In his role as an auditor, he assesses organisational systems and operational processes to verify compliance with applicable certification requirements and ensures that certification decisions are based on accurate and reliable evidence.
Beyond audit activities, Paul is involved in the overall certification process, including the promotion and sale of certification services and the ongoing management of client and stakeholder relationships. Through clear and effective communication, he supports clients—particularly in Romania—throughout the certification cycle, contributing to long-term collaboration and the adoption of responsible supply chain practices.
"My motivation to work with Preferred by Nature comes from a long-standing passion for environmental protection and responsible resource management. Being part of an organisation with a strong reputation for sustainability has allowed me to continuously grow professionally while collaborating with experienced specialists. Starting as an intern in the summer of 2023 and continuing as a Supply Chain Specialist has been an important step in my career, enabling me to contribute directly to transparent and credible forest-based supply chains."
