We are incredibly proud to have built up a large global team of craft experts, united by a shared passion for delivering human-centred digital solutions.
Our values
Better than yesterday
We’re continuously striving for small, incremental improvements every single day. In our processes, in our thinking, and in our craft.
01
Experts in the unknown
Clients come to us not because we claim to know everything, but because we’re experts in navigating complexity, ambiguity, and change.
02
Forever experimenting
We treat every project as an opportunity to test, learn, and push the boundaries of what’s possible–creating new ways to deliver impact and value.
03
Failure is our fuel
We see failure as a bruise not a tattoo; an opportunity to learn about ourselves and each other. Learning through failure will breed success.

Kath Blackham, CEO
Kath Blackham is the founder and CEO of VERSA, an AI consultancy and delivery partner helping organisations turn emerging AI opportunities into real, scalable digital experiences.
Throughout her diverse career, Kath has led teams at the forefront of digital innovation — guiding organisations through major shifts in how technology shapes customer and citizen experiences. Today, her focus is on helping organisations navigate the transition into the age of AI through agentic systems, intelligent platforms and conversational technologies.
Under Kath’s leadership, VERSA works with enterprise, government and purpose-driven organisations to identify where AI can create real value — running strategy sprints, designing AI-enabled experiences, and prototyping intelligent agents that orchestrate services across complex digital ecosystems.
Kath believes technology should make life better for everyone. She is particularly passionate about how conversational and AI-powered services can improve accessibility — helping organisations deliver more inclusive experiences for people with disability, older audiences and communities with diverse language needs.
Alongside her work in technology, Kath is a strong advocate for better mental health in the workplace and gender equity in the technology industry. She actively mentors women across multiple sectors, helping them grow their careers and remain in an industry that benefits from diverse leadership.

Working closely with leadership teams, he helps identify high-value opportunities for AI, designs the architecture required to support them, and leads multidisciplinary teams to prototype and launch intelligent systems.
His work spans agentic AI, conversational platforms, automation and next-generation digital services that orchestrate data, systems and processes to deliver better outcomes for users and organisations alike.
With a background in large-scale digital program delivery, Stephen brings a pragmatic approach to emerging technology — focusing on how AI can be integrated into existing ecosystems to create measurable operational and customer value.
As Managing Director, Stephen is also responsible for the growth and development of VERSA’s multidisciplinary team of strategists, designers and engineers, building a culture focused on curiosity, experimentation and turning new technology into practical solutions.
Social responsibility
Our commitment to making life better doesn't run skin-deep, it's at the heart of what we do. As a major employer and an industry leader, we take our social and community responsibilities as seriously as the delivery of bespoke digital solutions for our clients.
Charity outreach
Every other month we come together to give back. Over 15 years we’ve packed food boxes, raised thousands, and hosted countless fundraising events for causes close to our hearts.
Make life better
We’re driven by a shared mission to make life better. That passion connects us with like-minded organisations and inspires every team member to play their part in creating positive change.
Industry leadership
We champion change in our industry, sharing insights on the future of work and leading with inclusive, forward-thinking policies that challenge convention and celebrate diversity.
Work / life balance
Flexibility fuels our best work. As a remote-first agency and one of Australia’s early four-day week adopters, we don’t just talk about work-life balance—we live it every day.
We strive to always be at the cutting-edge of digital innovation; designing and building customer-centric solutions that make a difference.
