The role offers the opportunity to work with senior economists across the EMEA team in these four locations, but mostly in Belfast, and with other consulting teams, on high-impact and high-profile economic analysis for clients across the public and private sectors. This is an exciting opportunity for early-career economists looking to apply their economic training to real-world problems—helping governments, companies, trade bodies and other organisations make informed, evidence-based decisions.

  • Drafting and contributing to client-facing consulting reports and presentations with guidance from Senior or Lead Economists or Associate Directors
  • Engaging with clients and senior stakeholders—often explaining complex modelling outcomes and economic analysis in plain, accessible language
  • Helping build proposals for existing and potential new clients and responding to ad hoc client queries

Requirements:

  • A strong undergraduate degree (2:1 or above, or equivalent) in Economics or a closely related discipline such as Finance
  • Demonstrated experience (through academic coursework, dissertation, internships, or placements) working with data and conducting quantitative analysis
  • Strong Excel skills and some familiarity with analysis and data science tools/coding (e.g., R, Python, Stata, Eviews)
  • Ability to communicate complex economic concepts clearly and concisely, both in writing and verbally
  • Curious, analytical mindset with great attention to detail and a proactive approach to problem solving

Nice to have:

  • Exposure to macroeconomic modelling or forecasting(through coursework or projects) is advantageous
  • Familiarity with and experience using macroeconomic datasets
  • Previous work in a consulting, policy, or research environment
What we offer:
  • Fast career progression
  • On-the-job training and access to external training courses
  • Potential of secondment to our global offices
  • Regular team gatherings, team and company socials
  • Volunteering days and full-company offsites
