Experience

I've been in the digital sector from the early days. It's an ever-changing industry that never ceases to inspire me. 

An expert recruiter in all things digital, Andrea leads our Digital (Advertising & E-Commerce) team in his native Italy.

Andrea kicked off his recruitment career in 2011 — a crucial time for the blossoming digital sector. With his foothold established, he built up a complete picture of his market, starting with advertising and e-commerce profiles before taking on sales assignments to broaden his scope. Andrea quickly moved into recruitment management positions, applying his skills to ever-more senior profiles. He then took the opportunity to manage the entire digital practice, picking up invaluable recruitment strategies and market know-how over two successful years.

When the natural next step came in July 2022, Andrea joined Page Executive to flex his executive search muscles with a great deal of autonomy. His recruitment know-how, combined with his management experience, gives him a unique perspective that facilitates communication with clients. Always on the lookout for ways to improve, he thrives in the Page Executive culture, sharing skills and experience with colleagues from other sectors to build cross-industry synergies.

Andrea is in charge of Page Executive’s Digital sector in Italy and has his sights on becoming the country’s number one recruiter for senior roles. His ambition is certainly on track. Clients are consistently impressed with his market knowledge and clear understanding of what the assignment entails. But it’s not just about his efficient working techniques — Andrea is a natural people person who builds strong relationships with clients, whatever company they represent.

When he’s not tracking down top candidates, Andrea is a musician, channelling his creative outlet through his guitar. If you’re lucky, you might spot him laying down blues and jazz with his band or going solo around Milan.
