Senior Economist
2 months ago
Overview
Who We Are
Cornerstone Research is a leading economic and financial consulting firm with more than 900 staff members across nine offices. Together with an extensive network of internationally prominent faculty, we conduct rigorous, objective research applying the highest standards from academia to address complex financial, economic, accounting, and marketing issues that arise in litigation and regulatory investigation.
Cornerstone Research is involved in a broad variety of high-profile legal cases and disputes. Current matters focus on such topics as capital markets, business and securities valuation, M&A and corporate events, risk management, market competition, high-frequency trading, the impact of marketing on consumers, and patent infringement. For example, we address issues affecting the ongoing development of financial markets, such as applying frameworks at the intersection of finance and industrial organization economics to evaluate price setting in derivative markets. Beyond financial markets, we address financial economics issues arising in a range of other sectors, from such innovation-driven industries as life sciences and high technology to energy, telecommunications, and industrial markets. We address economic issues when evaluating potential mergers, claims of anticompetitive conduct, and the impact of intellectual property infringement. We also address marketing and economic issues arising in cases with allegations of misleading marketing or false claims. More detail can be found on our website at
Responsibilities
Senior Economists at Cornerstone Research
Cornerstone Research provides an interesting and rewarding work environment. Those joining our firm enjoy long-term career opportunities supported by our investments in their professional development and an escalating compensation structure including an industry-competitive salary and benefits package. Senior Economists work at the core of our client project teams and in the development of our practice, assuming increasing levels of responsibility. The firm has grown steadily over more than thirty years and we maintain a firm culture that is collegial, supportive, friendly, and collaborative.
We benefit from close collaboration with leading academics in finance and economics. Senior Economists help devise and apply innovative analytical approaches meeting the highest academic standards to address challenging issues arising in our work. We invest heavily in cutting edge information resources and computing capabilities and often have access to proprietary data to inform our analysis. Senior Economists help guide teams supported by our outstanding research analysts.
Career development includes staying attuned to the latest academic research. Senior Economists continue to hone their own research skills while building communications and managerial abilities. The firm supports the development of those interested in becoming testifying experts in some or all of their work, and of those not choosing that path. Either approach provides opportunities for career advancement.
