Message

At The Adecco Group, I worked across Group Internal Audit and CFO roles, including CFO of ADIA and Global IT. For ADIA, I helped define the business model and pricing strategy, build a flexible back office, and prepare the platform for global rollout.

At Octo Telematics, I defined KPIs and created operational reviews combining business metrics with enterprise risk management. I also worked on GDPR implementation, business continuity and M&A; an EBIT turnaround was achieved in 12 months.

I'm currently a Member Board of Directors at TomaLab, where I'm reshaping the company, and at IMPACTLAB SPA. Across my work, I’ve focused on restructuring, risk, governance and building finance functions that support growth.
