**Job summary**:
This is an exciting time to join the Department for Business and Trade (DBT). The work we do has a real impact on jobs and growth across the United Kingdom. Our mission is to help businesses export, drive inward and outward investment, negotiate market access and trade deals, and to advocate free trade. We are an international department based in 108 countries, and we work closely with our colleagues worldwide. Working in DBT, you will have the opportunity to shape the UK’s international trade agenda for years to come.

The Analysis Group within DBT exists to inform policy-making and to ensure that policy delivery has the biggest positive impact on the UK’s economy. We are here to ensure that Ministers and senior DBT personnel can make informed policy and operational decisions, based on the best possible analysis.

We are looking for a highly motivated G7 Economist to join the Multilateral Trade Analysis team, which sits within the Macroeconomic Analysis and Modelling Unit in the Analysis Group. The team provides economic advice, analysis, and research to inform UK thought leadership and membership in the WTO and other multilateral for a as well as wider unfair trade practices policy.

We deliver this by:

- informing UK priorities and positions in the WTO and other multilateral fora (including the G7 and G20)
- delivering a programme of analytical work to inform DBT trade defence policy (including market distorting practices, trade and competition and economic coercion)
- assessing the economic impact of multilateral and plurilateral trade agreements
- informing and supporting the UK obligations as a member of the WTO, including supporting UK scrutiny and the scrutiny of other existing and acceding members

This role is an exciting opportunity to help shape and lead the delivery of an ambitious and diverse analytical programme to support UK influence and membership of the rules-based multilateral trading system.

If you are looking to work in a fast-paced, dynamic and challenging environment, can think creatively about developing influential analysis, and are adept at supporting DBT policy colleagues and colleagues across Government to deliver high-quality analysis to support decision making, then this will be a great opportunity for you.

**Job description**:
You will lead and deliver a diverse programme of analysis on issues relating to multilateral trade policy, including certain trade aspects of economic security policy, to inform policy positions in these areas. While you will be encouraged to be proactive in identifying and driving forward new projects to meet evolving DBT/HMG priorities, there is plenty of support, experience and input available from the wider team.

You will take a lead on producing analysis that informs policy development on the impact that market distorting practices (MDPs) imposed by other countries have on the UK. MDPs are support or action by, or on behalf of, governments, that distort markets and result in detrimental impacts on other states and businesses. Examples include harmful industrial subsidies, unfair practices by state owned enterprises, and forced technology transfer.

There is likely to be increased scope to engage with other international organisations such as OECD, IMF and World Bank working on similar multilateral trade issues and with leading academics in this field.

Additionally, the role will include:

- Working with analysts across Government and UK/international experts to stay at the cutting edge and feed in latest insights on multilateral trade issues.
- Clearly communicating complex analysis and demonstrating what the policy/operational implications are in a practical manner.
- Developing relationships with relevant analysts and stakeholders across the department.
- Project/ line managing an HEO/Assistant Economist in the team, setting clear direction for them and ensuring their development progresses, and supporting them to deliver high quality analysis to their respective customers.
- Assuring analysis is fit for purpose and of high quality.

**Person specification**:
**Essential criteria**
- ** Application of knowledge**: Strong analytical experience, with breadth and depth of experience of undertaking economic analysis.
