Full Text of JOE Listing:

The Council of Economic Advisers (CEA) has openings in 2019 for economists with a strong interest in policy work and fast-paced worked environment. The CEA provides the President with objective economic analysis and advice on the development and implementation of a wide range of domestic and international economic policy issues.

We are looking to fill two-three positions: Senior Economists, Economists and Staff Economists.

Senior economists have a Ph.D. in economics and are typically on leave from positions at universities, government agencies, or research organizations. Excellent research skills and strong presentation skills are needed, as well as an ability to analyze complex policy issues quickly. Senior Economists participate actively in the policy process, represent the CEA in interagency meetings, and have primary responsibility for the economic analysis and reports prepared by the Council.

Staff economists and Economists typically have Master’s degrees and may be working on their Ph.D., taking leave from top programs for an academic year, and are integral members of the CEA team. They conduct advanced statistical analysis, contribute to reports distributed throughout the Administration and to Congress, and play a key role in producing CEA output.

The CEA needs specialists in virtually every field of economics. Economists must be U.S. citizens and go through a security clearance.
