**Job summary**:

- At the Competition and Markets Authority (CMA), economics is at the heart of everything we do. We tackle high-profile cases, analyse potential harm to competition, champion the consumer and offer intellectual leadership. As an _
**_Economics Adviser_**:

- , you will join a strong, diverse team of economists, working in a collaborative, collegiate atmosphere to manage economic input into a diverse range of cases, including investigations into mergers and markets, competition and consumer enforcement, and regulatory appeals_
- . _
- Recent cases in which economists played a critical role include the Facebook/Giphy and Microsoft/Activision merger inquiries and the children's social care and the mobile ecosystems market studies._

**Job description**:
Since the UK has left the EU, our role has become even more important as the diversity, number, and complexity of the cases we work on has increased, presenting exciting opportunities for motivated economists to further build our capability in this critical field. The scope of our work has also increased as the CMA has become responsible for the Office for the Internal Market and the Subsidy Advice Unit.

Additionally, legislation to give the CMA new statutory powers to tackle anti-competitive powers and promote innovation within digital markets was introduced to Parliament in April 2023. Within the CMA, this new regime will be overseen by the Digital Markets Unit, which is currently operating in shadow form. The Digital Markets Unit provides additional opportunities for economists to work on some of the most important online markets used by consumers and businesses in the UK, including search, social media, app stores and online marketplaces. It also offers economists the opportunity to influence the shape of future regulation of digital markets, delivering meaningful outcomes that ensure competition in these markets works well for consumers.

With the opportunity to work flexibly across the full range of our projects, or to specialise in certain areas, you will be the lead economist on some cases, and lead on a particular area of analysis in more complex cases. You will be responsible for carrying out and/or supervising economic analysis relevant to the project, including presenting results and providing economic advice to colleagues across different professions and decision makers. You will have opportunities to manage and develop others, and to contribute to the development of the CMA’s economics capability. You will be working in an environment with autonomy, responsibility and direct access to key decision makers. We are an international team; our economists have a range of backgrounds and nationalities.

We are looking for committed economists with practical work experience in the economic analysis of markets or applied microeconomics. A good understanding of industrial organisation and competition economics will be an advantage. The ability to write clearly and to present to non-technical audiences in a way that engages, informs and drives decision-making, is essential.

If you’re looking for a role that combines intellectual challenge with excellent opportunities for career development, we’d like to hear from you.

CMA prides itself on being a great place to work and strives to ensure that staff have the opportunity to grow and expand their skills portfolio. As well as being a hugely rewarding, diverse and stimulating place to work, you will have an opportunity to work for the public good and to stretch and develop yourself while doing so.

**Person specification**:
Key responsibilities will include the following:

- Working with Assistant Directors, determine the key areas for investigation and the economic analysis required to assess them. Develop the key questions which will inform the direction of the project; decide on and gather appropriate evidence (including drafting information requests and survey questionnaires); and identify how the economic analysis contributes to the overall assessment and approach to be taken in a project.
- Plan and manage the delivery of the economic analysis on projects or workstreams. Provide a detailed specification of the economic analysis to be undertaken and identify the resources required to deliver it; agree timetables for delivery and decide on the allocation of work within the economist team; monitor progress and review the work plan as the case develops; and ensure that the economic analysis is delivered on time.
- Ensure that the
