Milan, Lombardy, Italy, December 2025 — Valentina Tanzi has started a new position as Head of People Value and Engagement & Head of HR GC&CI at Generali Italia. This expanded mandate builds on her recent leadership in learning, DEI, and people engagement, reflecting the organization’s continued focus on strengthening employee value, culture, and strategic people priorities across key business areas.
Valentina Tanzi has built a strong people leadership journey within Generali Italia over the last more than two years. After serving as Head of People Value and Engagement, she now takes on a broader scope as Head of People Value and Engagement & Head of HR GC&CI, signalling increased responsibility across engagement strategy, inclusive culture, and talent-led organizational impact.
Before this phase, she spent about one and a half years with Generali Investments as Head of Talent, Training & Development, deepening her expertise in strengthening learning ecosystems and building future-ready capability frameworks within the wider Generali landscape.
Her longer foundational chapter was with Generali, where she contributed for over eight years in senior talent leadership roles, including Head of Group Talent Management and responsibilities spanning Group Talent Management & Strategic Sourcing. This period appears to have shaped her enterprise-level approach to succession, strategic sourcing, and group-wide talent architecture.
Prior to joining the Generali ecosystem, she served for nearly two years at KME as HR Business Partner and Development, further strengthening her experience in business partnering, leadership development, and people strategy execution aligned with operational priorities.
Earlier in her career, Valentina built her HR fundamentals through impactful stints at Eni across HR Development and HR Business Partnering roles over more than four years, and began her professional journey with GE Healthcare as an HR Generalist, building early depth in core HR operations and employee lifecycle support.
