Bio
Winith Misquitta
I had the opportunity to work for Paolo in Schlumberger Angola. It was a exciting experience. Paolo has strong commitment toward his job and he is top of the things. Paolo has strong financial understanding in Operations finance, business forecasting & others which made my job much easy as a Finance Controller working for him. He is thorough in his work and objective driven which helped to perform strong financial results for Wireline during his tenure in Angola. In Schlumberger Paolo has stepped in various leadership roles worldwide and performed very well. He will be very good asset to any organization he works and wish him all the best in the future endeavors. Winith Misquitta SAP Product Owner (Bits & Drilling Tools / Distribution)

I had the opportunity to work with Paolo back in 2013 when we each held Vice President positions for the Schlumberger Well Intervention product line, managing the Coiled Tubing and Slickline operations – in my case Asia, in Paolo’s Europe and Africa. Having worked at that point in the Wireline segment throughout his career Paolo adjusted to managing Coiled Tubing with impressive ease, quickly getting his hands the business. Furthermore, Paolo managed the range of challenges of the Region well. Paolo is a solid manager/leader and an amiable team player.
