Economist

We are keen to speak to Economists interested in joining our Competition practice. Our Competition team works closely with clients and legal counsel, providing a mix of strategic advice and technical support. We assist in pre-empting issues, producing and responding to technical analysis, preparing client submissions and expert reports, and giving oral evidence. The latest examples of our work can be found below:

• Accurately delivering work that has been scoped by others using a range of techniques.
• Engaging professionally with clients; actively listening and understanding their perspective and needs.
• Identifying how the relevant economic framework, as set out by project managers, will address the case in hand.
• Applying relevant core micro theory and empirical techniques across a range of Competition projects.
• Delivering high quality technical work by applying best practice.
• Identifying key results from analysis that will prove or disprove key hypotheses.
• Adapting written work to the target audience in terms of style and level of information.
• Supporting peers in preparing well-structured, clear, client deliverables.

Although this role will predominantly focus on Competition-related projects, we strongly encourage all of our Economists to work across Frontier’s different practice areas – that is, to be ‘fungible’. Fungibility benefits both individuals and the firm as a whole, and we believe it is core to maintaining our values and our culture.

In addition to stimulating and thought-provoking project work, we offer numerous benefits to support you inside and outside of work. All employees have access to numerous Learning & Development opportunities, including ongoing Career Development Reviews with the support of an allocated Mentor.

We understand the importance of work/life balance and offer flexible working arrangements, including working from home. In addition, we provide days annual leave with the option to purchase additional leave.

Frontier is entirely owned by its employees. As Shareholders, we encourage everyone to put forward their views. Not only do we influence how the company is run, but we choose to distribute as much of our profits as is prudently possible through bonuses. In addition, we offer a highly rewarding salary.
