  • Communicate technical findings from a range of quantitative and qualitative data sources to produce clear research and advice.
  • Work collaboratively in a supportive team that is committed to producing high‐quality research and analysis.
  • Liaise and manage relationships with key internal and external stakeholders.
  • Perform regular reporting to international bodies such as the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) and Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD).What else can we offer?
BCARR prides itself on being a great place to work:

  • Flexible working arrangements where appropriate, including part‐time hours, home‐based work and job sharing.-
  • Capability development opportunities, with a focus on data management and analysis (in software such as RStudio and Power BI).-
  • Exposure to high profile and exciting projects.-
  • Networking opportunities across the department and wider APS.Who are we looking for?
  • The ability to work cooperatively and collaboratively with team members, and to develop productive working relationships with internal and external stakeholders.-
  • Data analysis skills to solve policy problems and create data visualisations (experience in Excel, RStudio and Power BI are desirable).-
  • The ability to produce accessible written communication, including communicating material of a technical nature to a broader audience.
  • Relevant qualifications or equivalent experience in economics, econometrics, data analytics, statistics or related fields would be highly regarded.
