Associates at The Brattle Group

We are seeking Associates to work in all of our U.S. offices as well as our Sydney, NSW and Toronto, ON offices.
Associates work as part of a team on challenging and high-profile projects in a collegial and academically-oriented work environment. Brattle is large enough to be sought after to answer complex economic, regulatory, and financial questions for clients around the world. We are also small enough to provide our Associates with a variety of experiences and individualized development from our experts. Associates are central members of each project team and they apply finance and economic theory and practice to high profile litigation, corporate strategy, regulation, and public policy issues on behalf of our clients.

Associates are responsible for framing research approaches, project management, supervising team/staff, and developing client relationships while building individual expertise. As they gain valuable hands-on project experience, Associates also become more involved in marketing and business development efforts. The Brattle Group commits to continuous training and development for consultants and has a strong track record of developing Associates into Principals/Experts.

Ideal Candidates Will Possess
• PhD in Economics, Finance, Business, Accounting or related field with a strong foundation in quantitative analysis
• Pre or postgraduate work experience in a related work environment (preferably in finance, government, related industry, or consulting) is strongly desired
• Intellectual curiosity
• Strong analytic and quantitative skills (including proficiency with analytical/statistical software such as STATA, R, and Excel), along with practical problem solving abilities
• An entrepreneurial drive
• Strong relationship building skills
• Demonstrated proficiency in written and oral communications
