  • Contributing to the group's marketing and Business Development initiatives, and to the internal training program on topical issues in competition law/economics.
  • Opportunity to publish articles on topical issues in competition law/economics in leading academic and professional journals, and to be involved in pro bono projects.

  • A Master's degree in economics with experience of industrial and competition economics would be an advantage.
