As the president and CEO of McGraw-Hill Education from 2014-2017, Levin sought to drive the company's on going transition from a traditional educational publisher to a full-spectrum digital education company.[1][2][3] He has been a vocal proponent of the use of digital and adaptive technology in education.[4] Prior to joining McGraw-Hill Education, Levin served as CEO of UBM plc.[5][6][7] As a child, Levin lived in Salisbury, Rhodesia (now Harare, Zimbabwe). His father was a political journalist, and in 1965, when Levin was two, the family were given a day to leave the country.[7] In consequence he has expressed his gratitude to the opportunities given him in his adopted country, and about the advantages of immigration.[7] He attended St Paul's School in London.[7] Levin has a degree in Philosophy, Politics and Economics from Oxford University (1983), and an MBA from Stanford University (1984). Levin succeeded Clive Hollick as the CEO of UBM plc on 5 April 2005. At UBM Levin set out to focus on building the business in emerging markets and live events, such as exhibitions, by buying smaller companies and selling print titles.[8][9] He also encouraged the company to use digital media and mobile technologies. In so doing, he warned repeatedly that media companies must adopt new business models as fast as possible.[10][11] Under his direction, UBM secured its position as one of the world's largest events businesses having expanded into new and emerging markets such as China, India, Brazil, Vietnam and Indonesia.[9] On 16 September 2013 UBM announced David Levin’s resignation as Chief Executive Officer.[12] Prior to his time at UBM, Levin served as CEO of Symbian plc beginning in April 2002, when the company built the operating system[13] to power the first generation of smartphones.[7] He also held senior positions at Psion, Euromoney Institutional Investor PLC, Apax Partners, Universal Grinding Wheels of Stafford and Bain & Company.[6][14][7] Levin is married to Lindsay Levin, the founder and managing partner of Leaders’ Quest, a social enterprise that brings together leaders from all disciplines and sectors to use their influence to create change.[15] David and Lindsay have three sons.[7] He was on the finance committee of the Oxford University Press.[6] His mother, Leah Levin OBE, was a director of the human rights organisation JUSTICE.[16][17] His brother Jeremy Levin was named CEO of Teva Pharmaceutical Industries in 2012,[18] the largest company in Israel by market cap. He was replaced by Erez Vigodman.
