About Charles River Associates

We are a leading global consulting firm that offers economic, financial, and strategic expertise to major law firms, corporations, and governments around the world. Our experts have combined rigorous cutting-edge research, state-of-the-art methodology, and proven experience to address our clients' most complex challenges.

We specialise in providing economic advice on matters of competition policy and regulation. We assist firms and their legal advisors in all types of competition proceedings before competition authorities and courts: mergers and acquisitions, abuse of dominance allegations, cartels, restrictive commercial agreements, market investigations, litigation and disputes, intellectual property or state aid.

We have played a key role in many cases that have shaped European competition policy in recent years: from aerospace to software, and manufacturing to transportation. We have been at the forefront of economic thinking in antitrust investigations and regulation in the tech sector.

Position Overview

The Consulting Associate position is the entry-level position for applicants with a postgraduate qualification in economics. As a Consulting Associate, you will work closely with senior consultants, scholars and industry experts on project teams, and will have the opportunity to immediately work on some of the largest, high-profile and most significant competition cases in Europe.

Key Responsibilities

  • Identify potential issues and conduct analyses that can be used to illustrate economic arguments;
  • Assemble compelling evidence from data and research that support our expert opinions and business recommendations;
  • Program, build models and/or perform regression analyses in statistical analysis programs (such as Stata, Python, R), including large data projects requiring use of cloud computing;
  • Assist in the development and presentation of client deliverables, including expert reports and white papers summarising opinions, conclusions, and recommendations using financial, market, industry or client-proprietary data;
  • Interact with clients and communicate complicated economic concepts and arguments to non-experts in an understandable, accessible manner;
  • Ensure the integrity and accuracy of analyses and opinions; and
  • Participate in practice-building activities (training, recruiting, publication, expertise sharing, etc.).

Desired Qualifications

  • First degree in economics with a postgraduate qualification (MSc/MPhil) in economics from well-regarded institutions, graduating between December 2024 and August 2025;
  • Strong foundation in microeconomics, with a specialism in industrial economics preferred;
  • High degree of numeracy and comfort with data manipulation are essential, familiarity with econometric techniques desirable;
  • Curious and analytical thinkers who bring creative approaches to non-standard problems;
  • Effective oral and written communication skills;
  • Eagerness to learn new skills and programming languages;
  • Demonstrated high level of initiative and leadership;
  • Strong teamwork and collaboration capabilities;
  • Excellent time management and task prioritisation skills; and
  • Clear and demonstrated interest in consulting through coursework, work experience, activities, or attendance at CRA recruiting events.

We are based in London, UK, and minimal travel is required.
