Bring your considerable knowledge and understanding of international, national, regional and London economic issues and trends to us, and you’ll make GLA Economics - part of the GLA’s Intelligence Unit - everyone’s first port of call for reliable information and data.

This means working with our senior management team to identify areas where we could be missing information – commissioning sources of data and intelligence to fill these gaps and give our clients the answers they’re looking for. This often involves planning and leading special projects and initiatives – ensuring they’re completed to deadline.
