The portfolio includes public policy jobs at (non-) governmental organisations (e.g., OECD, World Bank, EC, national ministries, statistical offices, research institutions), analyst positions in private industry (banks, funds, insurances, consultancy firms, tech companies) as well as media and researcher positions in academia. The specialisations fine tune the job profiles.
