**Job summary**:
This is an exciting time to join the Department for Business and Trade (DBT) as we promote British trade and investment across the world. This important work is vital to UK prosperity. Trade analysts in DBT ensure that ministers and other senior leaders can make informed policy and operational decisions, based on the best possible data, evidence and analysis.

You would join the Trade Agreements Analysis team. This is a diverse and multi-disciplinary team which strongly values inclusion, professional development and high-quality impactful analysis. We work in a very high profile policy area so you can expect the analysis you produce to reach and directly influence the most senior decision-makers in government at the highest level.

This role is in a team that monitors and evaluates the UK’s free trade agreements (FTAs) once they have entered into force. The team does this by:

- Making use of established international best practice trade analysis techniques.
- Breaking new ground on innovative new techniques with the potential to deliver powerful new insights, including new projects aiming to gain insights from previously inaccessible UK trade datasets.
- Working closely with policy and operational teams involved in implementing and negotiating the department's FTAs to understand their impacts, improve their implementation and, where useful, adapt the department’s future approach, all helping to maximise the benefits of these FTAs.

**Job description**:
In this role, you will set a vision for the use of economic theory, modelling and econometric techniques to monitor and evaluate the UK’s FTAs. You will work collaboratively with a multidisciplinary team including economists, statisticians and social researchers to deliver your vision as part of a wider FTA monitoring and evaluation programme. This will include ongoing monitoring activity and long-term impact evaluation. Under your leadership, the team will design, test and deliver innovative analysis, making the most of existing and new data sources. Your team will use analytical tools and evidence to ‘tell the story’ of FTA impacts in ways that land with policy and operational teams and is useful to them.

You will be responsible for the economic analysis underpinning the UK’s first published ex-post analysis on the impacts of FTAs, establishing precedent and setting best practice in the area.

Your work will cater to a growing interest in the effective implementation of newly negotiated FTAs and their longer term impacts, both within the department and from Parliament and other stakeholders. This may involve complex challenges as you gain support for work that includes difficult messages. Your leadership and vision, combined with your ability to influence and persuade across the department and beyond, will be crucial to your success.
- Delivering monitoring analysis of the department’s FTAs that are already in force to support and shape implementation, and to help maximise their benefits
- Developing a robust approach to evaluating FTAs using economic modelling and econometrics, including developing innovative approaches using new datasets
- Setting a vision and direction for the department on FTA monitoring and evaluation, including using your leadership skills to secure buy-in from non-analyst seniors
- Effectively communicating to a range of non-analyst audiences, including translating complex economic analysis into non-technical understandable and accessible language, and conveying key implications to decision-makers succinctly and effectively
- Leadership and coordination of work from other analysts (including statisticians and social researchers) to support monitoring and evaluation planning and delivery
- Line management of one Fast Stream economist and matrix management on specific projects of up to two other junior analysts

**Person specification**:
**Essential Criteria**
- Knowledge and understanding of economic theory, modelling and econometrics
- Ability to set and deliver a credible and compelling vision for impactful economic analysis that meets stakeholder needs, ability to secure buy-in among analysts and non-analysts for your vision, and demonstrated experience of this
- Ability to present and comm
