Valentina Preziosi

I'm a detail-oriented and curious individual who thrives on multitasking and exploring new challenges. In April, I made the exciting move from London to Dubai, embracing change with an open mind and a passion for growth. Outside of work, I love cooking, staying active through sport, and planning fun, meaningful activities with my family.

Proficient assurance and SOX professional with over a decade of experience across internal audit, compliance, risk management and fraud investigations. I specialize in designing and implementing effective internal controls, conducting root cause analysis, and leading forensic investigations. My background spans multinational organizations and regulated environments, where I’ve collaborated cross-functionally to drive compliance with SOX, COSO, and BilMoG frameworks.

Skilled in gap analysis, control testing, and leveraging business intelligence tools, I bring a data-driven approach to identifying risks and enhancing operational resilience. With a strong track record in process improvement, training, and stakeholder engagement, I’m confident in supporting teams committed to transparency, accountability, and sustainable control environments.
