Our Team
Our people like working for us and you’ll like working with our people
At Brookes we share a passion for Supply Chain – that’s just the way we are. We’re professional, calm and competent. Most of our team are computer scientists, logisticians and engineering graduates, with the odd (very odd) mathematician thrown in. We all talk Supply Chain most of the time, sharing best practice with our colleagues and customers.
When you choose Brookes, the same team who sold you the solution, will design it and deliver it for your business.
Meet our Team
Martin Woodward
CEO
Founded Brookes 18+ years ago, where we’ve been helping customers to increase revenue and release cash, through better planning. Running complex supply chains for Unilever, re-engineering them with Ernst & Young and implementing supply chain software with i2/JDA, provided a great foundation for starting my own planning company.
Simon McCarthy
Director of Professional Service

Brookes is different because of the broad knowledge and experience across many different industry sectors, delivering solutions for a wide variety of supply chain issues.
