What happens when a woman with the “how hard can it be” gene takes on the male-dominated world of cyber and national security? In this episode of The Progress Report, Defence Connect’s Tash Taylor sits down with Niru Verma, partner at Excelium, to unpack the twists and turns of her career – from 11 years in the APS to launching her own business, to leading teams in one of Canberra’s fastest-growing cyber firms.

With candour and warmth, Niru shares how Post-it notes on her wall shaped her career goals, why authenticity matters more than conformity, and how mentorship can change the trajectory of women’s careers in STEM. This is a story of resilience, problem-solving, and redefining leadership in the technical industry.

The Progress Report. New voices. Real stories. Big shifts.
