Gabriele Montanaro | IPSOS – Treasurer

After completing my studies, I found myself thrown into the working world—a delicate and important transition that is rarely discussed, yet one of the most formative moments for any professional. I was fortunate to work alongside highly experienced colleagues, from whom I kind of “stole” mindset and strategies, focusing especially on areas I wanted to strengthen—such as tax training.
Over the years, I have developed comprehensive financial and managerial expertise, and today at IPSOS, I serve as the Finance Director for Italy. I am a positive person with a sunny disposition; I listen to others before making decisions and enjoy sharing my knowledge to help younger colleagues grow.
Every new challenge is welcome for me and my team — after all, life is beautiful because it’s diverse!
A flaw? I’m a perfectionist: I dive deep into things and always strive for the highest quality, setting high expectations for those who work with me — but, in all fairness, I hold myself to the same standards.
