    Episode 16: Supplier data protection: what businesses should be asking

    When a data breach hits, we often assume it was an inside mistake. But the reality? Your business is only as secure as the software, and third-party suppliers you trust with your data. This episode we're with our security and compliance experts Niall Geary and Darryl Oung from Wise to map out where supplier risk actually enters your business - and exactly how to spot the red flags before signing a contract. Whether you are a startup vetting your first software tool or an established business managing hundreds of supplier, this breakdown simplifies the messy world of supply chain security.

    Episode 13: Employment Rights Act 2025: Workplace rules rewritten

    The UK is undergoing the biggest transformation in employment law in decades - and businesses can’t afford to ignore it. In this episode, we unpack the sweeping reforms introduced through the Employment Rights Act 2025 and explore what they mean for employers, employees, and subcontractors alike. With 28 major reforms designed to shift the UK towards a more “pro-worker” framework, the way businesses hire, manage, and dismiss workers is changing fast. Whether you employ staff directly, work with subcontractors, or simply want to stay ahead of the legislation, this episode breaks down the key changes in a practical, easy-to-understand way.

    Episode 12: Meet the sales team

    "Sales" is a bit of a loaded word, isn't it? You’re probably picturing suits, aggressive handshakes, and people who won't stop emailing you. But at Wise, it’s a whole different game. And this week, our sales team are taking over the podcast! We’re hanging out with the people who actually grow our platform. We talk about everything from the high of that first closed deal to the "silver bullet" features that make prospects realise they're missing out. No corporate jargon - just the team chatting about how they actually get things done.

    Episode 11: Looking after our people

    We mark Mental Health Awareness Week by opening up an honest conversation about what mental health support really looks like inside a fast-paced, client-driven business. Joined by our Mental Health First Aiders, we explore why this week matters, what it means in practice, and how we can all play a part in looking after ourselves and each other at work. This episode goes beyond awareness. It’s about action, understanding, and making it easier for people to speak up, check in, and reach out when they need to. Whether you’re feeling great, feeling stretched, or somewhere in between - this conversation is for you.
