Job description

We are looking to hire an Analyst to join the team at Assembly. The ideal candidate would have a couple of years experience gained either in a similar role in another analyst firm, within industry, or in a policymaker setting.

You would quickly become a valuable member of the team, producing content for our subscription client base, and working on pieces of ad-hoc custom research. You would be given exposure to the firm’s clients, and have the opportunity to build your profile and network within the industry.

You should be a keen follower of developments in telecoms markets and the digital economy, with a firm understanding of the relevant regulatory and policy issues. All academic backgrounds will be considered, however previous successful applicants have studied subjects such as economics, English and politics.

Are you interested in competition issues arising from consolidation among telecoms operators or how regulators seek to promote competition and investment in the broadband and mobile markets while protecting consumers? Have you followed debates around online safety, digital sovereignty or the power of big tech? Or maybe you’re passionate about how AI should be regulated? In which case, we’d like to hear from you.

Responsibilities

• Producing various types of content for our subscription clients from quick, opinionated pieces to longer, more considered research
• Supporting the delivery of custom research projects on an ad-hoc basis
• Responding to client enquiries on research that we’ve already published
• Developing relationships with stakeholders, speaking to the press and media about your research, establishing a network of contacts
• Guiding, coaching, and occasionally project managing more junior members of the team
• Identifying prospective clients and positioning our research and services to them
• Developing subject knowledge by attending and participating in external conferences and events both within the UK and abroad (particularly Brussels)

Requirements

• A couple of years experience gained either in a similar role in another analyst firm, within industry, or in a policymaker setting (this is not an entry-level role)
• Awareness of the major themes and trends affecting telecoms and technology markets
• An interest and desire to present content and data in a visually engaging way
• Eagerness and willingness to use social platforms such as LinkedIn to share and promote content and the company
• Ability to communicate thoughts in a clear, concise and compelling way
• Excellent verbal communication skills and ability to present to external audiences
• Fluency in written and spoken English
• University degree
• Right to work in the UK
• MacOS, Keynote, Google Workspace, Airtable, Slack, Adobe Creative Cloud

About Assembly

Assembly produces independent research on regulatory, policy, and legislative developments in communications markets and the digital economy. We do this through the combination of a subscription research service and the production of one-off pieces of research and analysis.

What we offer

• The opportunity to be part of a growing analyst firm
• The chance to develop your profile and network within the industry, and to gain experience, knowledge and skills
• A salary from £38,000 and a contributory pension scheme
• Private health insurance
• Flexible working arrangements
• A modern office environment
