Journey of a CPO | Ep11 David Rowell from London Fire Brigade on Leading with Purpose Under Pressure

In our latest episode of #JourneyOfACPO, we sat down with David Rowell (Chartered FCIPS FCILT), Assistant Director and Head of Service, Procurement & Commercial at London Fire Brigade, to talk about what it really means to lead in an organisation where decisions have a direct impact on public safety. David shares why joining the London Fire Brigade was the culmination of a long-held ambition. Knowing that when someone dials 999 in London, a fire engine reaches an emergency call within six minutes, so systems have to work, suppliers have to deliver, and decisions can’t fail and that changes how you approach the job. Our conversation explores leadership beyond job titles. From resisting the temptation to micromanage in a data-heavy world, to building teams around strengths rather than control, David speaks openly about the lessons he learned moving from technical expert to people leader. We also discuss navigating major organisational change, the realities of public sector governance, and why values should always be treated as non-negotiable, no matter how challenging the situation. 🎙 Listen to more episodes of Journey of a CPO:     / @procurato   🔗 Follow us on LinkedIn for more:    / procurato   Visit our website: https://www.procurato.co.uk/ #LeadershipPodcast #CareerAdvice #Leadership #BusinessPodcast #CareerGrowth #journeyofacpo #londonfirebrigade #procurement #procurato
