 About RBB Economics

 RBB Economics is an independent economics consultancy specialising in competition policy. We are one of the largest competition economics practices in the world, with offices in London, Brussels, The Hague, Johannesburg, Melbourne, Madrid, Stockholm and Paris. Our work concerns the behaviour of firms with market power, and covers issues such as mergers, vertical agreements, joint ventures, price setting and the abuse of dominant positions.

RBB have built up strong relationships with clients from all areas of industry and commerce as well as with all of the major law firms specialising in competition law. Over the years we have been involved in hundreds of the most high-profile competition cases around the world. Our expertise is wide ranging, from industries such as energy, mining and steel, to the manufacturing of sophisticated medical equipment, financial services and sports rights.

 

We’re looking for exceptional, highly motivated economists to join our multi-national team. If you have outstanding academic credentials and flourish in the face of complex, intellectually challenging issues then we would love to hear from you. Qualifications are usually to postgraduate level, preferably with an interest in industrial organisation. We are looking for consultants with a range of quantitative and analytical skills, and the ability to communicate complex economic concepts in a clear concise style.
