General Industry Economist - European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD)
The European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) has achieved a vast amount in our 20-year history. Supporting the growth of open, democratic markets, we’re the largest financial investor in our regions of operation. Ultimately, our work makes people’s lives better. Be part of it.
About the role
Working within the Office of the Chief Economist means having a tangible impact on the overall direction and intellectual leadership of the Bank. So you won’t just be assessing transition gaps and producing strategy papers. Focusing on competition, innovation and external trade across a range of industries and a wide geographical region, you’ll engage in dialogue that will drive and develop both country and industry-specific policies. You’ll also design and appraise projects – analysing the impact they have on transition within manufacturing and services throughout our regions of operation. In addition, you’ll monitor and assess structural reform progress in relation to everything from privatisation and restructuring to competition policy and governance, as well as the general business environment.
About you
You’ll have significant experience in economic assessment supported by either a background in industry analysis or a relevant research and consultancy role. An expert in industrial organisation, you’ll possess solid analytical and quantitative skills plus a proven ability to work well under pressure. Underpinning all of this will be a postgraduate degree in economics or doctorate in industrial organisation, gained at a leading university. However, while we expect you to show specialist economic knowledge of both our existing regions and those we may expand into, we’re equally interested in your interpersonal, organisational and stakeholder management skills.
About us
Owned by 61 countries, the EU and the European Investment Bank, the EBRD supports projects whose funding needs cannot be fully met by the market. We have operations in 29 countries from Central Europe to Central Asia, and we’re currently working on projects with a combined value of almost €180bn. Each project is unique, but they all share common goals of encouraging private investment and promoting secure and stable market economies.
