Our Postal & Delivery team is at the heart of Copenhagen Economics’ growth. We pride ourselves as being one of the global thought leaders within the fields of competition and regulatory economics in the e-commerce, postal, and delivery markets, providing strategic support to private and public sector clients worldwide. We help our clients with strategic advice on regulatory design and pricing, economic expert support in competition and state aid cases, as well as with economic impact assessments. Our clients include delivery operators such as Deutsche Post, PostNL, PostNord, and UPS, e-commerce players such as Amazon, as well as national and European regulators and policymakers.
As our team is growing, we are looking for a senior economist, passionate about project management, to join our international team of experts and to support our private and public clients in e-commerce, postal, and delivery markets across Europe and beyond with sound economic advice.

You will take on an exciting and challenging position in an international, flexible, friendly, and fast-paced environment. You will assume extensive responsibilities from the outset and get the opportunity to grow both personally and professionally. Working as part of a team when dealing with clients, we make sure to recognise individual contributions and celebrate shared successes.
