Summer Internship Consulting Economics London 2021

Job description

Economics

In Economics Consulting you’ll advise high‑profile clients in the public and private sectors, providing economic insights and evidence to help inform their business decisions and shape their organisations. Our work addresses the most complex business and policy issues facing our clients, whether it’s navigating competition and commercial disputes; shaping efficient and competitive markets; providing macroeconomic forecasts; or appraising framing and delivering big investments.

Programme

Our Summer Internships offer high calibre students the opportunity to experience work and life at PwC, and gain a valuable insight into our business and culture. You’ll work alongside graduate trainees and experienced professionals on live and interesting client projects. You will be doing real work on real clients so be prepared to get stuck in.

What you’ll do

As a graduate economist you’ll be able to work across 8 key areas, including regulatory economics, impact assessment, macroeconomics, pricing economics, behavioural economics, financial economics, econometric modelling and competition economics.

You'll typically find yourself in teams anywhere from 2 to 15 or more people, often with PwC teams from other parts of consulting, lines of service, and even other countries. You’ll undertake cutting-edge economic analysis whilst engaging with executives from the world’s top organisations, learning how to present and communicate your findings with impact. You will also have the opportunity to work on public thought leadership pieces that focus on topics as diverse as quantifying the impact of increasing female participation in the workforce to assessing the possible future role of drones on the UK economy. Our work is regularly featured in national newspapers and on the news.

Most of your work will be London based, largely at the More London office, but occasionally also at client offices. There are also many opportunities for travel, both within the UK and internationally.

We’ll monitor your development so you know how you're doing and where you can improve. Before you graduate from the Foundation programme, your readiness to promote to Senior Associate will be assessed against the PwC professional to demonstrate you have the attributes required and are ready to operate at that grade.

What you’ll need

You’ll need to be in your penultimate year of an undergraduate or postgraduate degree; or
You’ll need to be in your final year of an undergraduate degree with a one year postgraduate place confirmed; and
You'll need to have, or be on course for, a 2.1 degree or above in an Economics related subject. We determine whether you're on course for a 2.1 based on the grades you achieved in your last completed year of academic study.
