    Senior Economics Analyst - United Kingdom - Oxford Economics

    Default job background
    Description

    We are looking to hire an enthusiastic Economist or Senior Economist to join our expanding Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA) Macro Consulting team, based in OE's head office in Oxford.

    The team delivers bespoke macro consultancy and research projects for private and government clients on a variety of macroeconomic themes, drawing heavily on OE's internal suite of models.

    Projects typically involve economic forecasting, scenario analysis and custom model development, across topics such as international trade, financial markets and the consumer sector.

    Economists/Senior Economists in the EMEA Macro Consulting team typically work on two or three research projects at a time.

    Consulting projects usually run for between two and six months, and culminate in a report, presentation to a client and/or handover of a model/analytical outputs.

    Under the supervision of an Associate Director, the successful candidate will be expected to undertake a mix of technical work including modelling and data analysis, production work such as report drafting or preparing presentations, as well as having an active role in client liaison.

    With greater seniority, the successful candidate will progress to managing consultancy projects, designing analytical frameworks and leading interactions with clients.

    The role offers an excellent opportunity to work with our diverse range of clients based in the EMEA region and across multiple sectors, with the opportunity for foreign travel.

    Good client management skills are therefore important.

    Working with senior colleagues, the production of research proposals for potential clients on request is also an important element of the job.

    Key Responsibilities
    Take the lead on specific aspects of project work, undertaking robust and rigorous economic analysis in the delivery of consultancy projects;
    Apply quantitative analytical techniques to large datasets using software such as Excel and EViews;
    Use the Oxford Global Model for forecasting and scenario analysis;
    Handle clients and potential clients effectively, responding promptly and positively to their enquiries and managing Oxford's relationship with them;
    Work with senior colleagues to write research proposals, project reports and presentations;
    Be able to plan and structure project work and coordinate input from other colleagues, ensuring sufficient time for quality assurance from senior colleagues;
    Senior economists will manage/mentor junior team members; and
    Be entrepreneurial in the identification and pursuit of new business opportunities.

    Skills & Experience Economists will be expected to have at least two years of prior experience, and Senior Economists at least three years of experience, working as a professional economist in the private or public sector.

    The successful candidate will be rigorous, adaptable and creative in seeking solutions to difficult economic questions. The successful candidate should also have the following attributes.
    Master's degree in economics or a closely-related quantitative discipline;
    Excellent written English and strong communication skills, including the ability to explain economic concepts and quantitative results, as well as their implications, to non-specialists;
    An intuitive understanding of macroeconomics, and a keen personal interest in global economic issues;
    Substantial experience of quantitative economic analysis and report-writing;
    Familiarity with applying quantitative analytical techniques to large datasets using software such as Excel and EViews/Stata;
    Evidence of being proactive and creative in using economics to answer (external, internal or policymaker) clients' questions; and

    Attention to detail and a commitment to going the extra mile to produce rigorous, accurate work, within the constraints of the time and resources available.

    Previous experience in using applied macroeconomics models for forecasting and/or scenario analysis;
    Knowledge of international trade and related policy issues;
    Understanding of the interaction between the economy and the financial/banking sector.
