WORK HISTORY
Director @Newton
Newton works hands-on with forward thinking organisations around the world to help them get more out of their operational processes and supply chains. Our people are talented engineers, not management consultants, so we’re able to identify issues that limit cost, delivery and quality performance, and then implement practical solutions that rapidly generate measurable, sustainable financial returns – from the factory floor up.With a track record of delivering 10-50% operational improvement in two to six months without any capital expenditure, we’re paid on the results we achieve, not the number of reports we write. It’s the intelligent way to unlock the potential within your business.

ABOUT DAVID MURPHY
As a Director at Newton Europe, I lead high-performing teams to transform the operational effectiveness of business in the Grocery Retail and Infrastructure sectors. I am a specialist in large programme delivery and creating a high-performance team culture where individuals accelerate their development. I bring my experience from engineering, healthcare, local & central government and international FMCG businesses into the way I run teams. Everywhere, there is a better way of doing things and I love working with the people in these organisations to make change happen.
