Be a catalyst for new ideas

Policy Researcher on international economic justice

Oxford
Salary  £29,880 - £37,770

Be incisive. Be thoughtful. And you can change the way decision makers and
the public understand development.

Generating ideas with like-minded colleagues, you will lead core areas of
research on the economics and political economy of development, and on
making states and markets work for the poor.

You will be part of Oxfam's high-performing research team. You will conduct
and commission research, both quantitative and qualitative, sometimes
working with staff on the ground in developing countries. You will
communicate your findings by writing high-impact briefing papers, campaign
reports and occasional media op-eds.

You are excited by ideas and development debates, and want to get to the
bottom of complex policy issues. You will need at least a Masters level
degree in economics or social science (including a strong economics
component) proven ability in writing for an economic policy audience and an
ability to present complex arguments in a clear, accessible style. You will
have good understanding of development issues with a strong gender
perspective, and specialist knowledge in the field of trade, investment,
market reform, social policy, aid, and/or poverty reduction.
