Research & Consultancy Economic Researcher (Public Sector)

Are you fascinated by fast-growing, exciting UK companies and their impact on the economy? If so, you’ll be the perfect fit for our Research & Consultancy team!

We’ve been producing cutting-edge reports on these companies and their ecosystem for years. And, to be honest, the reports have been going well so far! But we know there is so much more we can do with them.

Quick disclaimer: This is not scientific research or management consultancy, but is actually both (pretty great right?). You’ll work with clients to conduct research, interpret data and deliver content.  

If this sounds right up your street, read on!
