Examples of our work include:

  • tracking, modeling, and forecasting travel sector performance,
  • quantifying the economic impact of visitors, events, and destination marketing, and,
  • conducting policy and market analysis, and bespoke research.


Our clients include destination marketing organizations at the city, state, and national levels; leading industry trade associations; and major corporate owners, operators, and brands in the travel sector. We have a longstanding relationship with many of our clients, typically through subscription-based services or recurring studies. We serve a global client base from our offices in the US and UK.


Key Responsibilities

The primary responsibilities of the senior economist role include:

  • Preparing insightful, quantitative analysis of travel-sector trends, including analysis and forecasts of measures such as trips, visitor spending, employment, income, and tax revenue. For example, developing and operating econometric forecast models, preparing data and analytical insights in support of client deliverables, and preparing occasional research briefings as part of subscription-based forecast services.
  • Analyzing the economic impact of tourism from national to local levels, including preparing data, updating models, and drafting presentation-format reports.
  • Ensuring quality and consistency in results by being mindful of previous approaches, data limitations, and potential inconsistencies, and by being detail oriented.


In this position, you will apply a strong grounding in economic concepts and research methods. You will assist with econometric model pipelines in R and/or Python, drawing on our internal data warehouse and third-party data. You will gain familiarity with customized use of the IMPLAN software for economic impact analysis. As your capabilities expand, the role will grow to include managing more customized research such as scenario forecasts and policy analysis to support client decision-making.


Skills & Experience

  • Prior experience working as a professional economist with demonstrated abilities in managing increasingly complex research tasks.
  • Master’s level degree preferred
  • Excellent analytical and quantitative skills
  • Excellent verbal and written communication skills
  • Practical experience preparing and analyzing data, and developing econometric models, using software such as R, Python or Eviews, and experience with data visualization software such as Tableau, is desirable
  • Ability to work effectively in teams across offices and within tight deadlines
  • Ability to plan workload, ensuring sufficient time for quality assurance from senior colleagues
  • Attention to detail and a commitment to going the extra mile to produce rigorous, accurate work, within the constraints of the time and resources available.
