Frontier Economics is an economics consultancy that tackles the big questions facing governments, businesses and society. 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.

Competition at Frontier

Financial Management and Sustainability:
- Build a long term revenue pipeline by developing long term relationships with clients; identifying new markets or technical expertise and developing the skills of more junior staff in this area.- Take responsibility for the financial management of specific projects including: monitoring utilisation, recoverability and fee rates, and effective management of clients' expectations.- In collaboration with other practice management team members, take responsibility for identifying areas where the practice as a whole could expand its work winning activities.
