Giammarco Rizzo profile picture

Buongiorno!
I'm Giammarco

I'm an Italian-British Business Strategist with 10+ years of experience in shaping strategies for companies in Technology, Media & Communications 

I've helped 20+ multinational companies and 10+ start-ups with their Growth, Digital and Business Strategies across UK and EMEA

Available for freelance projects win Strategy Consulting and Private Equity

  • Grey LinkedIn Icon
  • Facebook
  • Instagram

I design business, corporate and growth strategies for large corporations and medium enterprises with expansion ambitions

AT WORK

I enjoy solving complex problems and challenge the status quo.
I like to be prepared for meetings, analyse extensively the industry and the competition in order to make them productive and offer triggers for insightful discussions.

I enjoy coaching and developing young talent and work in a collaborative environment where everyone's opinion is valued and encouraged.

IN LIFE

I enjoy organising trips with a traveler (not a tourist) mindset and by planning options to suit the mood of the moment. 
I enjoy art exhibitions, in particular related to Impressionism and Renaissance.
Since I discovered surfing, I'm on the mission to try as many water sports as possible.

Happy clients for a happy life

I've worked with many big-name companies, as a Strategy Consultant, a full-time employee or a freelance Business Strategist. Many projects are under NDA

5+ years experience in UK, India and Italy to hone my strategy skills

Unlike the Spice Girls, I think that if you want my future, you shouldn’t forget about my past. Those experiences made me the strategist and the man I am today.

Sales Strategy and Operations Senior Director, Travelport

"Giammarco’s key strengths are his capability to hone complex business material quickly, his excellent presentation skills across both written and verbal media, and his breadth in terms of being able to deliver valuable work product across all areas of work.

 

The C&MO function was broad covering Product, Customer Strategy, Marketing, External Comms, Customer Helpdesk & Operations teams, with c. 700 employees.

 

Giammarco was able to work readily in all areas. He was remarkably proactive both before his arrival and immediately afterwards in learning all he could from a wide range of sources about the company."
