DEADLINE 1st December 2020
Internship
Frontier Economics
London
Consulting, Financial Services, Management & Operations

Overview

Frontier is an economics consultancy that tackles the big questions facing governments, businesses and society. We support our clients on some of the most interesting, topical and high-profile issues across these areas. We help our clients to analyse and understand their markets and to formulate strategies based on sound economics. The methods and models we use are often complex, but our advice is always succinct, clear and honest. We use our analysis to provide insight into complex situations, giving clients jargon-free opinions and results that can withstand even the closest scrutiny.

We advise across sectors and countries and we are one of the largest economic consultancies in Europe with more than 200 Economists based in our offices in Brussels, Berlin, Cologne, Dublin, London, Paris and Madrid. Owned entirely by our staff, our business attracts the best people and the most interesting work. We go beyond the numbers to find out what’s really going on. Our clients enjoy objective advice, clearly expressed. With our help, they make better decisions and get better results.

What to expect during your internship

We aim to make your time with us as meaningful and interesting as possible. Our typical internships, in all offices, run for 8 to 12 weeks, but we also offer longer internships from 6 to 12 months, typically to those who have already obtained their undergraduate or postgraduate degree.

On the first day of your internship, you will have an induction covering different areas of Frontier and you will receive some basic training on various software packages and programmes that we use. You will also meet your mentor, who has the responsibility for giving you advice, day-to-day guidance and feedback on your performance. You will discuss with your mentor what practices you will work in and what projects you are initially working on. 

You will also have a “buddy” – an Analyst who is on hand to answer any general queries you have about Frontier. During your internship you will find yourself working in project teams with Analysts, Consultants and Directors.

You will receive guidance, feedback and support throughout your internship, and we welcome your feedback on us too. After your internship, you can apply to become an Analyst

Typically, short term interns will join us in Summer 2021 and long term interns will join in Spring or Autumn 2021

You will be responsible for:

  • Delivering a robust and accurate technical or theoretical analysis in a timely way, guided by more experienced consultants
  • Contributing to the writing of reports or notes, written in a logical and well-structured manner using language appropriate for the intended audience
  • Applying economic frameworks, ranging from economic equilibrium theory to econometric modelling
  • Developing your Excel, Stata and modelling skills
  • Working collaboratively with your project team/s as appropriate, while also being able to work alone on a piece of analysis seeking support when required
  • Managing your own work and time to ensure you meet the agreed project deadlines, seeking advice from more experienced consultants as required; and,
  • Work with Frontier economists across EMEA.

About you

  • You will be predicted or have obtained 2:1 university degree in Economics (or equivalent from a university outside the UK)
  • Strong interest and understanding of micro-economics
  • Ability to thrive in a collaborative environment
  • Strong Excel skills
  • Exceptional communications skills
  • Ability to meet deadlines
  • A fluency in the native language of the country you are applying to (a second language is also desirable, but essential)

 

Deadline: 1st December 2020

(We would strongly encourage applicants to apply early as positions will close once vacancies are filled)
