Connect to your opportunity

The Economic Advisory team is looking for candidates with (or currently studying for) a Master’s Degree (or higher) to join our team of economists, based in London, Cambridge, and Manchester in September 2027.

Our work varies across both:

• Working across issues in policy, regulation, and subsidy control; business cases; economic appraisal and evaluation; energy market assessment and modelling; macroeconomics and supply chain, and
• Working in a variety of sectors including Energy & Utilities; Defence, Security & Justice; Transport; Real Estate & Regeneration; Central Government; Healthcare & Life Sciences.

We value the investment you’ve made in developing your economic skills through your Master’s or PhD studies in economics.

At Deloitte, you will apply microeconomic and macroeconomic theory alongside economic and econometric modelling to address business, consumer and regulatory issues facing our clients. You might tackle questions familiar from your studies—such as how firms and consumers respond to incentives, how markets should be regulated, how policy choices affect different groups in society or how investment affects growth—but apply them to live client challenges. This could involve shaping policy and regulatory frameworks in the energy and transport sectors, developing and appraising investment strategies, building macroeconomic models and forecasts for governments,  assessing the economic and social impacts of major infrastructure projects or considering value-for-money from public sector investments.

Depending on the client question, you may draw on qualitative and quantitative evidence, engage with a wide range of stakeholders and apply approaches such as policy appraisal, behavioural economics and consumer choice, econometrics, financial analysis, and economic and general equilibrium modelling. You will have the opportunity to present your work both in written reports and in presentations and workshops with senior business and policy leaders. Our work is made better through collaboration, and in Economic Advisory you will work alongside a team of fellow economists as well as sector and technical experts from across the firm, both in the UK and globally.

Companies, regulators and governments look to us to help them understand economic issues impacting their business and policies. Your technical expertise and the skills you build in Economic Advisory will ensure you are seen as a trusted advisor in helping them make crucial decisions and making an impact that matters.

At Deloitte Economic Advisory, you will be part of a collaborative and supportive team, offering various training opportunities and career coaching. Some of the experiences you may obtain from being an economist at Deloitte are:

• Gain experience in a range of technical areas including economic analysis, market analysis, business modelling, strategy, policy appraisal, economic modelling, valuation and financial analysis.
• Develop solutions to a wide range of high profile and complex problems facing businesses, regulators and governments using a range of software and analytical tools such as econometrics, financial analysis, and economic general/partial equilibrium modelling.
• Collaborate with others through debate and discussion, whilst learning how to effectively communicate with others.
• Develop strong relationships with clients across a wide range of sectors and countries.
• Build long-lasting relationships with colleagues based on mutual respect and trust.
• Communicate effectively with clients through presentations, reports and meetings.
• Develop report writing, team working, project management skills and the commercial application of economic theory.
• Continue with your professional development throughout your career through training opportunities across both soft and technical skills.
• Work in multi-disciplinary teams across Deloitte on major projects for both public and private sector clients.
• Experience different cultures and local business practices, whilst working with colleagues and clients around the world, as well as enjoying opportunities for national and international travel and secondments as part of a diverse team with an inclusive culture where people are recognised for their contribution.

Regulation and controls are standard practice in our industry and Deloitte is no exception. These controls provide important legal protection for both you and the firm. We are subject to a number of audit regulations, one of which requires that certain colleagues abide by specific personal independence constraints (e.g., in relation to any financial interests and employment relationships). This can mean that you and your "Immediate Family Members" are not permitted to hold certain financial interests (shares, funds, bonds etc.) with audit clients of the firm, and also prohibitions on certain employment relationships (e.g., you are not permitted to hold a secondary employment role with SEC audit clients of the firm whilst being employed by the firm). The recruitment team will provide further detail as you progress through the recruitment process or you can contact the Independence team upon request.
