Francesco Sensi, Cavaliere del lavoro (July 29, 1926 – August 17, 2008) was an Italian oil tycoon. He was born in Rome, where he lived throughout his entire life, though he also served time as mayor of Visso, the city where his family came from. He had been for fifteen years, until his death, general manager of Associazione Sportiva Roma, the major football club of Rome. He took control of the club in May, 1993, both with Pietro Mezzaroma, and he then became the sole general manager on November 8, 1993.[1]

Under his chairmanship A.S. Roma won one scudetto (2000/01), two Supercoppa Italiana (2001 and 2007) and two Coppa Italia (2007 and 2008).

His daughter Rosella used to be A.S. Roma General Manager as well. For Sensi's entrepreneurship activity, he's been given by the President of the Italian Republic the honour of Cavaliere del lavoro, on 2 June 1995.
