Trade Economics Analyst
ION Economics, LLC, is seeking full time staff members to join its practice working on trade cases brought before the International Trade Commission and Department of Commerce in Washington, DC. ION is a small consulting firm specializing in economic, analytical, and statistical support for international trade litigation, working primarily with lawyers engaged in antidumping and countervailing duty cases, representing both foreign and domestic industries. We’re open to entry level applicants or someone with 1-3 years of experience. ION seeks candidates with BA's in Economics, Business, Mathematics, Computer Science, Accounting or other quantitative fields.
Skills a strong applicant would have:
- A grounding in basic economic theory and statistics.
- Strong writing skills.
- Attention to detail and flexibility.
Other skills or experience that would be considered pluses:
- Some experience in econometric analysis and/or programming (in any language).
- Foreign language skills.
- Accounting, especially cost accounting.
Work includes microeconomic and financial analysis, database modeling and programming (SAS), spreadsheet building, formal writing, and online service research.
It is not necessary to have any experience in trade economics - you’ll be trained on the specifics of our business as we onboard you. This is a good position for someone right out of college with a major or a minor in Economics, or someone with a few years of experience in working in economics, accounting, or even a legal support position.
