What I'm looking for

I'm open to relocating within the EU for a role where I can strengthen security governance, cyber risk, operational resilience, and regulatory compliance in a regulated environment.

At Assicurazioni Generali, I align security posture, controls, processes, KPIs, and KRIs with business and regulatory requirements. I led the redesign of Group-wide security reporting across 50+ business units, improving executive visibility into cyber risk through NIST CSF-aligned governance metrics.

I've spent seven years working across banking and insurance, including IT governance and cybersecurity at IBL Banca. I support cyber risk assessments, BCM and DR activities, security compliance, and cross-functional coordination across Security, IT, Risk, Audit, and Operations, with a focus on DORA, NIS2, ISO 27001, and ISAE 3402 alignment.
