History
Over an 18-year career as an engineer and project manager in the international oil industry, Timothy Newman learned that most organisations have a short-term requirement for a dynamic, goal-driven, self-reliant individual who can be assigned a specific task – and in many instances that was him.
Regardless of his job title and formal duties, Timothy’s employers consistently called upon him to tackle unusual or persistent problems. Whether it was fabricating and installing a bespoke piece of lifting equipment, supervising rock-dumping works on an ice-breaking ship in the run-up to Christmas, inspecting a lighthouse on Sakhalin Island, or setting up a project office in a new country on a week’s notice, Timothy was hand-picked in the knowledge he would deliver regardless of circumstances.
However, the characteristics which made him suitable for these tasks meant he struggled to settle into the traditional corporate roles on which long careers are built, and he often found himself frustrated over hierarchal decisions, bureaucracy, and micromanagement.
Seeking to understand the problem more fully, Timothy embarked on an MBA in Human Resources Management to learn about the cultural nature of organisations, the incentives at play, and the resulting behaviours of employees. He realised he was better suited to work with dynamic, goal-driven organisations in industries where the time between decisions and outcomes is short. When his studies concluded he joined the newly-formed battery materials division of a blue-chip chemical company where he gained valuable industry knowledge and witnessed the HR and technical challenges of an organisation trying to grow in a fast-paced business environment.
In May 2021 Timothy left his corporate role and, inspired by one of his MBA professors and drawing on his niche battery materials knowledge and international experience in the oil and gas industry, founded Newman Eventus to help small and medium-sized technical companies tackle short-term challenges and achieve better outcomes. He has since been joined by two of his former industry colleagues.
