Assistant Economists (Econometrics)
£29,405 - £35,147
London

The Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) is a newly created organisation that promotes fair competition, within and outside the UK, to support economic growth and protect the best interests of consumers and businesses. Our work is complex and compelling and can benefit the lives of everyone in the UK – and for those who join us at this formative time it offers a uniquely exciting professional opportunity.

We currently have opportunities for two talented individuals to join our econometrics team, which undertakes econometric analysis for teams working on competition and consumer cases as well as research and evaluation projects. These are varied roles where you'll work across the full range of projects the CMA undertakes (e.g. mergers, market studies, competition and consumer enforcement cases, and regulatory appeals). These roles offer an exceptional opportunity to gain experience in the wide range of work carried out by the CMA, developing a deep understanding of competition economics and quantitative techniques used in the field.

We expect that you'll be degree qualified (with a significant emphasis on econometrics) potentially enhanced by a post-graduate qualification and that you have an excellent understanding of a range of econometric techniques. Practical experience of implementing these in a competition or consumer setting would be a considerable advantage, but isn't considered to be essential. You should offer a blend of strong analysis and reporting skills and be able to advise and support non-technical colleagues and audiences, even when communicating complex information. A good understanding of industrial organisation and competition economics will be key.
