Paul Beswick is a Partner and the Global Head of Oliver Wyman Labs and the Digital Practice. In his more than two decades with Oliver Wyman, Paul has worked in a range of sectors including retail, transportation, telecom, and consumer goods.
The common thread in Paul’s work has been his passion for delivering sustainable answers to his clients’ toughest problems. He develops robust solutions that embed the best of Oliver Wyman’s intellectual capacity in easy-to-use tools, so that our impact continues long after the conclusion of our engagement.

A New Zealand-born transplanted Brit, Paul lives in the Boston area, where he takes full advantage of easy access to the mountains and to the sea for skiing and sailing. He is enjoying teaching his daughters the art of a well-executed gybe and instilling a passionate support for the All Blacks.
