Every mission and every client is different, but our model of work doesn’t change. On a day-to-day basis, you’ll work with our clients to identify opportunities for operational improvement. You'll then plan and implement the changes that need to happen to solve the problem.
What you'll do
Work hybrid, remote (depending on the project) or field-based, shoulder-to-shoulder with clients, transforming operations within their organisations. You'll spend time with their people – mapping processes, analysing data, and looking for opportunities to improve the way they work. Once you've determined where the biggest opportunities are, you'll knuckle down and get stuck in – creating and implementing project plans that deliver on the promises we make and continue to do so long after we've gone.
Where you’ll work
We work on projects across the nation - from the tip of the Cornish coast to the Scottish Highlands. This means you're free to live anywhere in the UK.
Travel
Being onsite with the client is a big part of being a consultant so during the week, you’ll be put up in a hotel, near the client-site, paid for by Newton. However, we know there’s nowhere like home, that’s why you’ll be home by 6pm every Friday, no matter where you live in the UK.

Since we began, we’ve hosted Review Days regularly. It’s a unique aspect of our culture and a chance for the entire company to collaborate and help solve project challenges together. We also have Review Nights the previous evening, which allows colleagues to unwind, network and socialise in a fun and relaxed atmosphere.

Training & Development
The training and development we offer our people is second-to-none and is widely considered an invaluable asset among consultants.
Our graduates go through a similar developmental journey up to their first promotion. After which, plans are tailored to each individual’s strengths and aspirations. Every single Newton employee is assigned a personal Development Manager whose aim is to help fulfil those ambitions and expand their horizons.
What we look for
At Newton, we bring together talented and curious people who can apply themselves to solve the most complex problems for our clients.
We look for mindsets as well as skillsets. People with big ideas, not big egos. Inquisitive team players who question everything around them, and who can relate to people from different backgrounds and levels of experience.
Graduates who join us will get to see the impact they make from day one.
So, what technical skills and personality types do we look for in our graduate consultants?
We want to see three things
We assess everyone on their own merits. We like people from diverse backgrounds with different ways of thinking and unique skillsets. It’s what helps us deliver the most creative and effective solutions for our clients. However, if you were to ask us what we “look for” in every graduate, we would point you to three key areas. These are listed below.
Take the opportunities around you
You can learn and improve because of the projects you work on, the clients you partner with and the colleagues around you. There is always something for you to learn from if you are open and proactive and these qualities will help lead to bigger projects, more impact and rapid progression.’
What we want you to show us:
Curiosity - show us your curiosity. Prove you will leave no stone unturned when formulating ideas and developing skills to improve yourself.
Belief - We want you to have belief in your abilities and respect for the talents of others. That’s how we work and we want to know that’s how you’ll work too.
Show the will and the skill to make a bigger impact
Data, smart thinking and measurable impact are what we’re known for. Unlike some consultancies we don’t just write a report; instead, we scope the problem and devise a solution in order to make a positive difference for the client. Working this way means, you will need to analyse information, uncover meaningful recommendations and help to adapt and deliver them in real time.
What we want you to show us:
Insight - no matter what degree you’ve studied, if you have the ability to use data to uncover meaningful insight, we would like to see it.
Resilience - in this sort of environment, you’ll also need to demonstrate a will and resilience to get things done. Complex and time sensitive problems are some of the most satisfying to solve, but they are also hard work. Tell us when you’ve done that before and we’ll listen with interest.
Hear and be heard
We know great ideas can come from anyone, anytime. It’s why we look for people who thrive when working with others and who see the value in collaborating. We value supportive people too. We’ve always got each other’s backs. Wherever a Newton person is, they know they’ve got a support network to call on.
What we want you to show us:
A supportive approach - you’ll need to be open to collaborating with clients and colleagues to discover the best solution.
Team spirit - it’s important that you’re ready to work hard as part of a team. Doing so will allow you to form bonds that’ll help you rise to any challenge, and will often develop into lasting friendships.
