Maximilian Redolfi
Managing Partner, Italy & France

“At Page Executive Italy, senior leadership starts with clarity.

We believe that executive search is not simply a process, but a strategic partnership that supports companies at every stage of their journey.

Whether a business is thriving or facing challenges, external insight can create meaningful value; especially when planning the succession of key roles, where timely intervention is essential. Our work spans governance consulting for board composition, management assessment, and the executive search for strategic and operational leaders who can guide organisations through complexity with clarity and purpose.

Rooted in the Italian market and connected to Page Executive’s global network, we combine extensive local knowledge with international perspective. Besides Executive Search, our clients rely on us for market intelligence, compensation benchmarks, and insights drawn from the many executive mandates we manage each year.

We are proud to stand beside our clients as long term partners; helping them build leadership teams that bring purpose, progression and connection to the heart of their organisations.”

At Page Executive, we believe that Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DE&I) are not just values; they are essential drivers of innovation, resilience, and long-term success. As organisations worldwide strive to create workplaces that reflect these principles, we are committed to leading by example and partnering with clients to achieve meaningful change.

We work closely with businesses to design and implement inclusive hiring strategies that go beyond compliance, ensuring access to truly diverse talent pools. Our consultative approach helps organisations embed DE&I into their leadership structures, fostering teams that deliver creativity, innovation, and sustainable growth. From advising on best practices to sourcing exceptional candidates, we support clients in building cultures where every individual can thrive.

By embedding effective principles into our own hiring strategies, we aim to lead by example. Our global initiatives complement this client-focused work. Rooted in a shared vision to positively impact one million lives by 2030, champion gender parity in senior leadership, and contribute to the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals, we combine thought leadership with action.

As part of our commitment to inclusive leadership, Page Executive Italy actively collaborates with leading universities to support the next generation of diverse talent. Through initiatives with Università LUMSA, Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore, POLIMI Graduate School of Management, and Luiss Business School, our partners regularly engage with students on topics such as executive search, leadership assessment, AI in recruiting, and the future of work.

By bringing real world insights into academic environments, we help future professionals understand the skills, mindsets, and opportunities that shape modern leadership. These collaborations strengthen the bridge between education and industry and ensure that emerging talent has equal access to knowledge, networks, and development.
