When you join Newton you become part of a global strategic delivery consultancy working with governments, public sector organizations and leading brands to realize their ambitions and meet their most complex challenges. We are renowned for our deep, hands-on commitment, working in partnership with clients to get things done.
For 25 years we have been delivering positive change and measurable impact for our clients, their people and the communities they serve. Our international ambitions continue to grow, and we are now recruiting a new cohort of consultants to help build and shape our presence in North America.

You’ll plan and implement the changes needed to realise value and deliver lasting impact. You’ll work on-site, from the factory floor to the boardroom, and everywhere in between. Every project and every client is different, but our commitment to creating enduring value for them doesn’t change.

More about the role
Consultants typically travel Monday through Thursday and return home for weekends. Projects may occasionally require longer periods away from home or international assignments depending on client needs.
Most US Consultants will spend most of their time on North America projects. However, building a new practice involves some flexibility. When required, Consultants may work in the UK or other client locations for extended periods. All candidates should be prepared to work internationally. These stints can last several months and will result in longer periods without travelling home
Yes. Candidates in North America can apply to the UK graduate intake, which runs as a separate recruitment process with its own salary, benefits and employment terms. The Consultant role is globally consistent, but contracts are country-specific, and joining one scheme does not guarantee a future transfer between roles or locations. For both the UK and North America Consultant roles, international mobility is expected. Consultants should be open to working on projects in the UK, North America and other geographies, with mobility driven by project needs rather than permanent relocation.
Newton combines strategic thinking with hands on delivery, guarantees outcomes and immerses Consultants in client work and sites. Our performance-based model means we are accountable for results. We offer real responsibility early and a collaborative environment where people support each other to succeed.
You will have a dedicated mentor, regular feedback through review and team days and access to specialist training. Our team culture ensures you are never working alone: colleagues share knowledge and help each other overcome challenges.
No, we will not be sponsoring visas for the US Consultant role. We’re focusing on US nationals and those with the right to work in the US.
We have worked with a range of international clients, including Kimberly-Clark, Mars, McDonald’s, Kellogg’s, Rolls Royce, and BAE Systems.
