ECONOMIST / Sr. ECONOMIST

About CEGIS

Centre for Effective Governance of Indian States (CEGIS – pronounced See-Jis) aims to improve lives by helping Indian state governments deliver better development outcomes. We believe that well-functioning governments share at least four features with high-performing organisations: (a) outcome measurement and data driven decision making: which requires appropriate data collection (on both inputs and outcomes), analysis, insight generation, and decision making at different levels of government; (b) effective personnel management including – competency-based hiring and training, adequate staffing, appropriate job assignments, and performance measurement and management; (c) strategic public finance where attention is paid to both the quantity and quality of expenditure and revenue, and where resource allocation is based on evidence and cost-effectiveness; (d) and creating efficient systems to leverage markets and external actors (including for-profit and nonprofit organisations). At CEGIS, we support state governments to build these foundations so that they can deliver development outcomes more effectively.

CEGIS works closely with the political and bureaucratic leadership in Indian states to achieve transformational change. We are currently present in 8 states - Telangana, Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, BTR (Assam), Delhi, Chhattisgarh, Maharashtra and Odisha. We also partner with union agencies/ministries such as Capacity Building Commission, Ministry of Women & Child Development (MoWCD), Ministry of Statistics & Programme Implementation (MoSPI) to share insights from our state-level work and disseminate them broadly. We also collaborate closely with academics and research institutions to ensure our work is grounded in rigorous research and evidence-based practices.

CEGIS Approach and Model of Functioning

Our solutions to enhance governance are co-created with state governments in a “state-led” way, where we focus on deep partnerships with states with an iterative cycle of “think-demonstrate-document-transfer”. We work closely with the top bureaucratic leadership, front-line workers and public officials in Finance, Planning, Human Resources and a few other priority line departments. Many of our solutions reflect ideas outlined in our founder Prof. Karthik Muralidharan’s book (Accelerating India’s Development), and these solutions are constantly being refined based on real-time feedback and are designed to both be customized to the contexts we are working in, and to create templates that can provide the starting point for replication across contexts.

To further explore the mission of CEGIS and the impact we hope to have, please take a look at this video of our CEO, Dr Vijay Pingale.

Position Summary: Economist/Sr. Economist

As the demand for CEGIS’s offerings is growing, we aim to hire multiple Economists to join the “Economics and Statistics Unit” (ESU) at CEGIS to conduct economic analysis focused on state-level policy issues in India. In this pivotal role, you will be at the forefront of driving analytical work and conducting impactful research on policies and programmes that can boost the effectiveness of thousands of crores of public spending, and thereby improve the translation of public expenditure into development outcomes for millions of people.

The Università della Svizzera italiana (USI) is a young and lively university, a hub of opportunity open to the world where students are offered a quality interdisciplinary education in which they can be fully engaged and take center stage, and where our researchers can count on having the space to freely pursue their initiative.

Established in 1996, USI is in constant evolution, always taking on new challenges while remaining true to its three guiding principles: quality, openness, and responsibility. Facing the challenges of today’s globalized economies entails the ability to interpret and manage complexity. With professors who are at the forefront of research in their respective fields, the Faculty of Economics is the ideal venue to acquire and further develop competence, flexibility, and intellectual curiosity to identify fundamental issues and face them with creativity and talent.

The Faculty of Economics invites applications from candidates with an international research profile for a position as Associate or Full Professor in Economics.

The position also involves serving as Director of the Institute for Economic Research (IRE), which conducts applied research on issues of regional importance chosen in coordination with the Cantonal Department of Finance and Economy (DFE). Through its three observatories (O-Tur, O-De, O-Fpe), IRE conducts research studies and policy evaluations, serves as consultancy of cantonal policy makers and monitors the local economy, with a particular focus on the labor market, as well as the tourism sector, public sector, and the energy sector.

The successful candidate is fluent in Italian and willing to invest in the knowledge of the local economy of the Canton of Ticino. The required academic qualification is a doctoral degree in Economics (PhD).

USI is aware of the various and different backgrounds of its employees and, as an institution that promotes diversity and inclusion, USI particularly encourages applications by female candidates and of all under-represented groups.

3. Teaching load

The standard teaching load of 18 ECTS is reduced while the candidate serves as Director of IRE. The size of the teaching reduction will be part of the contract negotiation.

4. Residence

We are looking for highly motivated candidates with strong quantitative, programming and analytical skills, and an interest in economic research. We particularly value curiosity, perseverance, and a demonstrated commitment to research and learning. We will consider applicants from any background.

Specific requirements:

  • Master’s or bachelor’s degree (in the last 5 years) with strong grades in economics) or another quantitative social science field, including strong math skills;
  • Strong knowledge of STATA, R or Python; familiarity with other statistical software or programming languages is a plus;
  • Fluency in written and spoken English;
  • Confidential recommendation letter from 1-3 letter writers who are familiar with academic research (professor, research supervisor, or similar).

The following qualifications are not required, but represent a plus:

  • Knowledge of causal inference research methods;
  • Previous experience in research, e.g. as a research assistant or a research manager;
  • Top of the class, high GRE Quant score, completed MITx MicroMasters courses;
