The Senior Economist (EMEA) position, based in London or Brussels, will provide rigorous and thoughtful analysis of the economic value of the Internet. This leader will deliver data-driven insights not just from a EMEA-based commercial perspective, but set within the wider social, financial, and political contexts. Crucially, this person will also serve as an active spokesperson and help communicate this information to government policy-makers, the media, and to the people. This is a unique opportunity for a statistically-oriented economist to join what is truly a mathematical guru's playground, to use these findings to help change the way business is done and to change the world for the better. Like Hal, we believe that statisticians will hold the dream jobs of the next decade, and Google is looking forward to this significant next step in our continued investment in this area.
This role can be based in either London or Brussels.
Responsibilities:
Economic analysis of Google's advertising model in EMEA, looking at areas such as the economics of online advertising auction models, the competitiveness of online advertising and the economic value of a free and open Internet.
Explaining and communicating the impact and positive value of Internet developments and online activity to society and the European economy as a whole.
Being a public advocate for the competitive nature of online advertising and for the contribution of the Internet to national economies.
To work cross-functionally with our Product, Sales and Policy teams on economic analysis that supports robust communications and public positions.
