We are looking for an experienced Energy Economist to join our growing UK Economic Advisory (EA) practice, with a focus on the energy transition, investment decisions, energy markets and modelling. The analysis and insights provided by the Energy Economics practice within EA are central to Deloitte’s most complex client decisions across Energy, Resources & Industrials (ER&I) and infrastructure investment. EA sits within the Infrastructure & Real Estate (I&RE) practice, and the team supports projects across Strategy, Risk & Transactions Advisory and Deloitte’s broader ER&I practice. You will help clients navigate the transition to net zero, major infrastructure investment decisions and rapidly evolving energy markets.
We combine rigorous economics and sector expertise with the scale of Deloitte’s wider capabilities. As we continue to expand our energy offering, we are building the Energy Economics practice for the future by developing our existing tools and intellectual property into AI-enabled energy data, models, investment platforms and digital tools. You will have the opportunity to shape distinctive propositions and deliver integrated advice to Deloitte’s clients, including strategic insights, financial advice, transaction support and advice on policy and regulatory decisions across the UK and global network to help deliver the energy transition.

Connect to your opportunity
Our Energy Economics team provides advice where energy markets, public policy, regulation and commercial strategy intersect. We help clients understand market developments, design and assess policy and regulatory interventions, evaluate investments, and make evidence-based decisions under uncertainty. This Manager role is central to our growth: you will lead high-quality client delivery while helping shape our energy-transition proposition and commercial pipeline.
Examples of projects you might undertake include:
- Advising investors, corporates and public-sector clients on energy-transition opportunities, market entry, investment and commercial strategy, investment appraisal and business cases;
- Energy market outlooks, price forecasting and scenario analysis to support investment and strategy;
- Economic assessment of power-market reform, subsidy mechanisms, carbon pricing and other energy-transition policies;
- Regulatory strategy, price controls, charging frameworks and cost-benefit analysis for energy networks and utilities;
- Power-market, whole-system and optimisation modelling to assess generation, networks, flexibility, hydrogen and decarbonisation pathways;
- Commercial and strategic advice for energy companies, infrastructure investors and major energy users;
- Economic appraisal and impact assessment of low-carbon technologies, infrastructure and transition programmes.
As a Manager, you will take ownership of projects from scoping through to delivery, translate complex analysis into clear advice for senior stakeholders, and maintain trusted client relationships. You will coach junior colleagues, contribute to a supportive team culture and play an active role in winning work, developing propositions and growing our profile in the energy-transition market.
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.

- Knowledge of UK, European or international power and gas markets, energy networks, hydrogen, carbon markets or flexibility;
- Experience combining economic analysis and commercial and investment strategy with engineering and broader financing perspectives.
This is an important delivery role with strong potential for progression and the opportunity to support the team’s growth. You will manage client engagements, advise senior stakeholders and help develop our people and the wider Energy Economics practice, including our investment and modelling propositions. You will have substantial ownership of delivery and team management and will contribute to business development.
In this role, you will:
