Rodrigo Ribeiro
@rodrigoribeiro
Government affairs and public policy leader specializing in stakeholder engagement and regulatory strategy.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Government Affairs and Public Policy professional currently managing a portfolio of 10 PPP and concession projects (~BRL 7 billion) as a Project Manager at Prefeitura de São Paulo. I ensure regulatory compliance and stakeholder alignment by monitoring regulatory frameworks and policy developments, and I support governance processes and risk mitigation in complex infrastructure projects.
Previously, as a Senior Government Relations Analyst at Santa Marcelina Cultura, I led institutional engagement across 300+ municipalities and supported program expansion through negotiations with public stakeholders. I also produced reports, studies, and analytical content to support decision-making, strengthening stakeholder engagement and institutional positioning.
Earlier roles at the Secretaria de Estado da Cultura de São Paulo included serving as Director, overseeing partnerships between government and social organizations, public budget execution, and regulatory compliance. I’m driven by policy-driven, data-informed decision-making—using Power BI and Excel to build dashboards and performance indicators—and I’m currently pursuing postgraduate studies in International Relations to deepen my understanding of global policy dynamics.
