The opportunity

We are looking for a Senior Analyst to join our Sector Insights team. You will be an expert on infrastructure development, construction, or related fields such as transportation, energy, or real estate financing & investments, and combine strong analytical skills with a strategic mindset and real‑world perspectives. You will identify and research key trends, market dynamics, and client issues in the sector, lead specific programs, and deliver high‑impact analysis and distinctive insights for the Domain and its activation with clients. The role is focused on developing market‑leading strategic insights and points of view rather than financial or commercial analysis.

Your key responsibilities

• Develop a strong internal brand to become recognized within EY as a leader and subject matter expert at the business unit and executive level.
• Engage with senior domain stakeholders to provide commercial perspectives on issues, challenges, and opportunities facing the domain, preparing insightful analysis on the impact of those trends for EY and its clients.
• Participate in client meetings and represent the firm at selected events to enhance EY’s presence in the market.
• Collaborate with domain stakeholders and EY colleagues across Insights and Clients and Industries to support business development activities and service delivery to clients.
• Working with senior stakeholders, proactively support the development of the Insights strategy for the domain, based on business priorities and a detailed understanding of the domain’s dynamics.
• Lead the creation of specific insights by leveraging EY’s proprietary knowledge and collaborating with Clients and Industries colleagues.
• Identify opportunities for cross‑Domain collaboration and share insights with other Insights and Clients and Industries teams.
• Synthesize diverse perspectives and sources to develop compelling insights that drive results.
• Use qualitative and quantitative research methodologies to provide analytic insights.
• Coach less‑experienced team members to improve their skills in research, analysis, data analytics, and visualization.

Skills and attributes for success

• 10+ years of experience in market analysis and industry research specifically related to infrastructure development, construction, or related fields such as transportation, energy, or real‑estate financing & investments.
• In‑depth understanding of key concepts related to infrastructure project development and construction, such as the infrastructure project lifecycle, decarbonization strategies, multilateral infrastructure finance, project delivery methods, and public‑private partnerships (P3s).
• Understanding of the “big picture” and intersections with other sectors including energy, financial services, private equity, and telecoms.
• Excellent oral and written communication skills, capable of explaining complex concepts clearly and concisely to senior clients and other stakeholders.
• Deep project management skills, including the ability to scope and deliver a project from ideation through to activation, and manage multiple projects simultaneously.
• Collaborative and able to work effectively in a fast‑paced, global, multi‑cultural environment.
• Ability to proactively build a network of internal and external contacts to shape insights.
• A proactive self‑starter, able to bring new ideas for new insights to leadership.

What we look for

Collaborative, able to work well both as part of a team and independently in a global, multi‑cultural, and virtual environment. Outstanding executive‑level presentation skills and the ability to interface with all levels of domain and EY leadership, and with clients at a senior level. Comfortable with big‑picture thinking and having succinct, structured oral and written communication skills.
