We're Hiring: Economic Analyst

Keystone Strategy is the leading strategy and economic consulting firm serving Fortune 100 clients in internet, online advertising, mobile communications, and other high-tech industries whose businesses are built on cutting-edge science and technology.  We combine insights from renowned experts at Harvard Business School and other institutions with our consultants’ practical industry experience to tackle precedence-setting litigation, antitrust and IP matters.  Our clients are well respected and admired and the results of our work can regularly be found on the front page of the Wall Street Journal. 

 

Data is our kingdom and as an Analyst in the Economic Consulting practice, you’ll have the opportunity to impact some of the biggest global antitrust and IP cases while getting extensive exposure to the technology industry.  You’ll have the chance to work on the cutting edge of Big Data; the world’s largest web properties (Google, Facebook, Microsoft, etc.) all collect terabytes of data a day about their businesses, and their data management stacks have evolved beyond traditional data warehousing and business intelligence capabilities. At Keystone we develop hard won insights driven by these data platforms, and engineer solutions to extract and analyze data in creative ways to impact our clients’ most strategic projects.
