Who We Are
Newman Eventus is an independent consultancy supporting organizations involved in scientific research, industrial operations, engineering and construction, and capital project execution.
Our expertise derives from over two decades of international industry experience covering all aspects of capital project execution and business management.
Newman Eventus are pragmatic problem solvers whose goal is to help our clients actually achieve business objectives, rather than merely propose solutions. We actively take on the ownership and management of tasks for our clients, and are happy to work independently or within a team as required.
Newman Eventus are competent across a wide range of disparate yet overlapping areas which gives us an uncommon perspective and allows us to identify root causes and solutions which others may miss.
On occasion we have been described as a Swiss Army knife: not the first choice in some cases, but highly versatile and exactly what you need in certain situations.

History
Originally from Wales, Timothy graduated from the University of Manchester in 2000 with an MEng in Mechanical Engineering and embarked on an 18-year corporate career. Working in and around major capital projects in engineering and construction, Timothy lived in Kuwait, Dubai, Russia, Thailand, Nigeria, Australia and France before leaving the industry to pursue an MBA in Geneva.
Timothy returned to the UK in 2019 to join an international chemical company which had just entered the fledgling field of advanced battery materials. After 2 years he reached the conclusion that companies seeking to execute major capital projects are poorly served by mainstream consultants, especially when entering a new field. He saw an opportunity to provide specialist technical and commercial guidance to small, independent companies and to supplement consulting with interim management which would deliver meaningful results. He founded Newman Eventus in the UK in 2021 and the new company immediately won a contract to support an international equipment manufacturer, which led to the hiring of their first employee.
A major contract with a US client in 2022 saw Newman Eventus open an office in St Louis, Missouri in September 2023 and the company achieved E-2 treaty investor status in 2024. Newman Eventus now provides a range of services to clients in the US, UK and elsewhere.
