Episode 10

In this episode, we sit down with Simon to reflect on his first year in role and explore how leadership, technology, and delivery are evolving across the public sector.

Simon shares how his perspective on Verto’s purpose, people, and impact has developed over the past year, alongside honest reflections on what it really takes to lead in the public-sector tech space. We discuss the changing role of P3M support, how platforms like Verto can enable transformation at scale, and what separates organisations that thrive through change from those that struggle.

The conversation also explores the balance between public and private sector delivery and what each can learn from the other, how cross-sector experience shapes the evolution of Verto, and where greater collaboration could unlock real value.

A thoughtful and grounded discussion on leadership, pragmatism, and building technology that genuinely supports better outcomes.
