We are currently seeking master’s graduates to support our Antitrust and Competition business based in London.

We work across a wide variety of sectors, and with companies big and small.

As a member of an international team, you will support us on high-profile cases at the UK, other national, EU and, together with our colleagues around the world, global level. In a collaborative and rewarding environment, you will for example determine the extent to which the economic evidence is consistent with an infringement allegation, quantify the damage caused by a cartel, and advise merging parties through the merger review process.

• Conducting literature research and data analysis, spanning from simple descriptive analysis to more complex econometric analysis
• Collaborating with your project team/s as well as being responsible for your own pieces of analysis
• Interpreting the results of your analysis and presenting your findings to the rest of the team and clients
• Participating actively in drafting reports, memoranda, presentations and other work products

You will need

• To hold a BA/ BSc and a Master’s or PhD in Economics or related discipline with exceptional academic records. Specialisms such as microeconomics, IO, and econometrics are of interest
• To enjoy quantitative research and programming using quantitative software.
• To be comfortable working in Excel, R or Stata
• To have strong attention to detail and be able to think analytically and critically
• Strong communication skills in English, both written and spoken, and fluency in another language would be useful but is not essential
• To be able to work effectively both individually and in teams

What we offer

• The opportunity to work on high profile projects, so you can apply the knowledge and skills you have acquired during your studies to help solve real world problems
• Competitive salary and extensive benefits package including defined contribution pension and health insurance
• Support to develop through high-quality training
