We strongly believe in the positive potential of AI and actively support its responsible use in the workplace. However, applications that use AI to generate a cover letter will be rejected, and the use of AI during any interviews or written exams will also result in rejection.

Our Competition team offers the opportunity to work on high-impact antitrust cases and mergers, providing economic analysis to clients across various sectors.

You will collaborate closely with legal teams to assess competition risks, gather data, and develop strategies that address antitrust concerns, shape case outcomes and quantify damages.

  • Write reports, presentations and articles, independently or in conjunction with others.

What we’re looking for

  • An excellent academic record with an undergraduate degree, covering microeconomics, econometrics and game theory.
  • Strong problem-solving abilities, and analytical and communication skills.
  • Fluency in spoken and written English. An additional European language is desirable, and is a requirement for those based in Brussels or Paris.
  • Advantageous: previous experience of producing insights and providing recommendations within a client-facing context.
  • A collaborative team player approach.
  • Knowledge of programming languages such as Stata and/or R (desirable).

What we can offer you

  • A highly competitive salary.
  • An opportunity to make an impact and shape the economics landscape by working with regulators, state departments, competition authorities, law firms and other private clients and stakeholders.
  • A supportive, multicultural work environment, with the option of employee mobility.
  • A collaborative working environment, with client exposure from day one.
  • The opportunity to work with some of the brightest and most experienced minds in the industry.
  • A structured career path, with ongoing training, mentorship and development opportunities to help you grow.
  • A commitment to fostering an inclusive workplace where diversity is celebrated and everyone is empowered to contribute.
