Greg Newman

Principal People Analytics Partner

Rio Tinto

With 25 years of experience living and working across five continents, Greg has spent his career solving complex Global HR Technology and Data challenges. After 15 years building increasingly large and complex global HRIS systems, Greg became frustrated by the disconnect between the data HR was collecting and the business’s need to drive revenue, engagement, and performance.

That frustration led Greg to dedicate the past 11 years to People Analytics — creating solutions that help HR, business leaders, and employees make informed decisions based on accurate, relevant, and timely data. Whether developing a world leading Organisational Network Analytics product, leading Deloitte Australia's People Analytics capability or now at Rio Tinto, his focus has remained the same: enabling sustained and measurable business impact.

At Rio Tinto, he brings passionate HR professionals together with their super-smart analytics team, helping ideas spark and grow. What drives Greg is showing the real impact of that connection — turning energy and expertise into stories leaders can act on, and proving the value it creates for people and the business.
