The role

This is an exciting opportunity for an economics undergraduate with keen analytic and mathematical skills to join an economic research team at one of Europe’s largest asset managers. Working directly with the Head of Macroeconomics, this role will involve work primarily on the US and UK economies, including analysing how economies will emerge from a period of high inflation and softening activity and the financial market implications of ongoing support from authorities. This fast-moving role will give valuable experience of working in a global economics team. As well as being based in London’s newest office space.
