The Central Bank of the Argentine Republic has two openings in management positions for senior economists in the modelling and forecasting department.

A successful candidate will be an economist with a graduate degree in economics or related disciplines (preferably a PhD), a strong publication record in academic journals in the areas of macroeconomics and finance, an interest in academic production, the ability to manage projects and coordinate teams, and strong oral and written communication skills in Spanish and in English.
