About DT Economics

We are an economic consultancy focused on regulation, competition, and expert witness services. We advise on complex regulatory and commercial matters. Our clients range from established blue-chip companies, network operators, regulators, and competition authorities, to leading law and accountancy firms. We differ from our competitors in a number of ways:

  • our team includes former regulatory experts within telecoms operators and a former global leader of the economics practice of a Big 4 consultancy;
  • we sit and have a history of sitting on decision-making panels on some of the world’s most respected competition and sectoral regulators;
  • we specialise in the communications and technology sectors, but have experience in other regulated industries as well;
  • we have a flexible structure in delivering projects, balancing a core/permanent team with a large international network of associates that collaborate with us on a project-by-project basis; and
  • we draw on a wide variety of expertise across economics, competition, regulation, strategy, finance, accounting, modelling, law, and engineering to serve our clients.

The Role

We are looking to recruit an Associate Consultant to join our core team based in central London.

By leveraging your expertise and delivering impactful insights, you will play a crucial role in helping DT Economics' clients navigate complex regulatory and competition issues and make informed strategic decisions.

Your responsibilities will include:

  • Conducting in-depth economic and financial analysis to support clients in regulated industries, e.g., in the context of modelling market trends, forecasting demand, and evaluating the impact of regulatory changes;
  • Summarising research and data to prepare high-quality reports and presentations for senior client stakeholders;
  • Collaborating with cross-functional teams of economists, engineers, and industry experts to provide comprehensive solutions;
  • Advising clients on navigating complex issues in the areas of economic regulation, competition, and strategy;
  • Participating in regulatory/legal proceedings and supporting the broader team in expert witness cases; and
  • Supporting the practice on business and practice development activities.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
