    Episode 5: Breaking down barriers - Social mobility in tech

    In this episode, Jess Ridout speaks to Katy Hampshire, Director of Programmes at the UK’s leading social mobility charity, The Sutton Trust, to explore the importance of increasing socioeconomic diversity in tech.  While the sector has made some progress when it comes to gender and ethnicity, Katy unpacks why continuing to drive social mobility is vital for both individuals and the broader UK economy. Katy and Jess discuss the current state of play, including how tech is behind other sectors such as finance and law, and look at steps organisations can take to create more opportunities for talented people from lower socioeconomic backgrounds. Tune in as Katy outlines how The Sutton Trust is helping young people through initiatives such as its Careers Plus Tech and Digital Programme, and shares stories of those now thriving in competitive industries because of the charity’s early support.

    Episode 3: How military skills shape corporate careers

    In this episode of The Power of Perspective podcast, host Hannah Green is joined by colleagues Suli Scatchard, a Reservist and Business Analyst, and Ian Norgate, a Veteran and Test Manager, to explore the transition from military service to corporate life. Tune in to hear their stories of service in the British Army, family traditions in the military and what motivated them to serve. From operating high-frequency radios to rebuilding hangars in Afghanistan, Suli and Ian provide a glimpse into the realities of both reserve and regular duty. This powerful conversation explores how the skills gained in the military, such as leadership, resilience and adaptability, carry into their current roles at BAE Systems, and how their time in uniform continues to shape their perspectives today.   If you're a service leaver or veteran thinking about your next step, we’re here to help. We value the experience, dedication, and skills you bring from your time in the Armed Forces. As a proud Gold Award recipient of the Armed Forces Covenant, we’re committed to supporting your transition into a civilian career that’s both meaningful and rewarding. We know that leaving the military can feel like a big change, but you’re not alone. Our dedicated recruitment team specialises in helping veterans and service leavers find the right opportunities, and they’re always happy to offer advice and guidance.

    In this episode, James Muir is joined by Andy Snowball, Head of Cyber Incident Response at BAE Systems Digital Intelligence for an in-depth discussion on his experiences responding to cyber security incidents. Andy and his team are part of the National Cyber Security Centre’s Cyber Incident Response (CIR) scheme which involves supporting organisations when they become compromised. There’s not much he hasn’t dealt with – from the continued rise of ransomware and double extortion, to vulnerabilities in edge devices and sheer persistence. He shares more about tactics cybercriminals are using to disrupt organisations, surprising real-life stories, important tips for securing your organisation and what to do when the attackers get through your defences.

    Episode 1: Lessons learned from emerging tech

    In this episode, Jess Ridout is joined by Adrian Peachey, Chief Information Officer (CIO) at BAE Systems Digital Intelligence to discuss lessons learned from adopting AI and how these can be applied to other emerging technologies such as quantum. Tracing AI back to its routes, they reflect on how it has evolved through time, from early chatbots to automation and the pivotal moment that was the launch of ChatGPT. Sharing examples of his own experiences with AI at BAE Systems Digital Intelligence and working with customers, Adrian tells Jess why getting comfortable with change is fundamental for staying a step ahead of emerging technologies both now and in the future. According to Adrian, if we’re thinking about other potential disruptors, such as quantum and advances in robotics, this lesson should remain constant.
