Scannapieco began his career in 1992 within the Planning and Strategic Control Department of Telecom Italia.[4] [5] Three years later, he joined the Council of Experts of the Italian Ministry of Treasure.[3] From 2002 to 2007, he was general director of Finance and Privatizations of the Department of Treasury of the Italian Ministry of Economy and Finance.[6] [7]
