We are seeking candidates who have recently completed, or are close to completing, a PhD in economics, finance, statistics, data science or another relevant field for two Senior Economist positions.

You will be part of the Forecasting and Policy Modelling Division in the Directorate General Economics.

Consisting of around 220 staff, our Directorate General analyses, models and forecasts economic developments and policies. It contributes to analytical studies, reports and policy positions, and produces research for publications such as the ECB’s Economic Bulletin, Occasional Paper Series and Working Paper Series, as well as for academic journals. The Directorate General provides advice to the ECB’s decision-making bodies on monetary policy and prepares and coordinates the ECB’s and the Eurosystem’s staff macroeconomic projection exercises. It also contributes to the debate on further deepening Economic and Monetary Union and represents the ECB in various European and international fora.

The Division employs around 20 members of staff with recognised expertise and a strong publication record in macro modelling. We develop and maintain euro area and large country models used at the ECB for the preparation of monetary policy, together with the corresponding data and model platforms. Our research and model-based analysis contributes to the ECB’s and the Eurosystem’s macroeconomic projections, and to the preparation of Governing Council meetings more generally. We also investigate structural issues of relevance for monetary policy.

Current projects include integrating consumer, firm and sector heterogeneity into our models; evaluating the impact of monetary, fiscal and climate policies; exploiting non-traditional data sources and non-linear, machine and deep learning methods for model solution, estimation and forecasting; and methods for quantifying and interpreting risks to the economic outlook.

For these roles we are seeking candidates who demonstrate the potential for growth, and we will support the selected candidates in their development of the required skills.

The positions offer you excellent opportunities to join a dynamic and experienced team, develop and use advanced macroeconomic modelling tools, contribute to monetary policy and learn from leading experts. You will work in a stimulating, receptive environment in which you can apply your research to monetary policy preparation. We also provide access to research assistance, top computing facilities and extensive data, as well as the opportunity to interact with consultants and attend conferences and seminars on various topics. You will be part of a multicultural team that strives for continuous innovation to make a positive impact on the lives of European citizens.

  • excellent analytical and quantitative skills, for example in econometrics, time series, machine learning or deep learning, and experience in empirical applications of such methods;
  • excellent presenting skills;
  • an advanced (C1) command of English and an intermediate (B1) command of at least one other official language of the EU, according to the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages.

Desired:

  • if you received your PhD more than three years ago, a publication record in line with your seniority, comprising papers published in high-quality, peer-reviewed academic journals.

You know and anticipate stakeholder needs.

You are motivated to contribute to the ECB’s mission, to serve the citizens of the EU as a member of a public institution and to work with colleagues from all over Europe.

You are motivated to be part of our team and to develop and use your skills and competencies to achieve the aims of this position.

We would be happy to discuss a part-time arrangement for this role.

Further information

The contracts will be convertible into permanent contracts after three years subject to individual performance and organisational needs.

The Center for Advanced Studies "Finance and Inequality" (CASFI, casfi.uni-bonn.de), sponsored by the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG), is seeking up to

two short-term postdoctoral fellows in economics.

The positions will be available starting September 1, 2026, or later, for up to one year.

CASFI brings together economic historians and modern macroeconomists to improve our understanding of how inequality trends, cyclical fluctuations, and finance interact to shape the (macro-)economy. The center is led by Carsten Burhop and Christian Bayer.

CASFI's economics branch is closely tied to the Institute for Macroeconomics (MEE) at the University of Bonn (mee.uni-bonn.de). MEE conducts innovative research in stabilization policies, labor markets, international trade, and the role of household and firm heterogeneity—including intra-household decision-making—for the macroeconomy. The institute is affiliated with the Clusters of Excellence ECONtribute (econtribute.de) and the Hausdorff Center for Mathematics (mathematics.uni-bonn.de/hcm).

Ideal candidates have an empirical or theoretical background in macroeconomics and conduct research tied to the Center’s research areas (broadly defined as inequality or finance). Requirements for a postdoctoral researcher include a Ph.D. The ideal candidate has stable employment for after the fellowship but is seeking a postdoctoral position, e.g., between finishing his or her Ph.D. and beginning an assistant professorship, or during a sabbatical.

Successful candidates are expected to contribute to the center's academic life. The center regularly hosts conferences, workshops, and a seminar series. The institute and the center use English as the working language. Although there is no teaching obligation associated with the fellowship, there are teaching opportunities.

Salary and benefits will be in accordance with a public service position in Germany (E13 TV-L, full-time) or in terms of a fellowship if the latter is preferred. Funds for travel and guests are available.

Applications, including a CV, up to two publications or research papers, and at least two letters of recommendation, should be uploaded via econjobmarket.org by October 31, 2025.

We are pleased to announce an opportunity for a distinguished scholar to join the Technical University of Denmark (DTU) as a Full Professor (Chair) and Head of a Section within the Transportation Science Division, at the Department of Technology, Management and Economics – in short DTU Management.

The position offers a unique platform to conduct pioneering research in Human Mobility while joining DTU’s broader ecosystem of technological knowledge and innovation with the transportation sector.

The new professor will be chairing the research in human mobility and take leadership in building a group within this field and setting the academic course for the group. The department is committed to supporting this development over the coming years with significant investments. <a name="_Hlk201914303"></a>In addition to the full professorship, two new faculty positions will be added to the section (group) awaiting the new chair.

The Transportation Science Division has a strong domain knowledge of the transport sector and mobility, and is, with its broad coverage of disciplines, an internationally outstanding unit in the field of transportation science. We deliver ground-breaking fundamental research as well as research-based insights and tools for policymakers and industry professionals.

The overreaching focus is the importance of understanding human mobility and behaviour when planning and operating transportation systems and formulating policies and regulations. Human behaviour is embedded in our research on transport systems and mobility prediction models. Our research creates a foundation for policy support related to a variety of challenges in the sector, such as the green transition, mobility for all user groups, congestion and challenged land use particularly in large cities; equity, safety, and risk; and derived negative externalities of transport.

The division is interdisciplinary with scholars originating from transportation engineering, economics, psychology, computer science, social data science, machine learning, mathematics, and statistics.

Responsibilities and qualifications

We seek a professor that can build up a strong research team to advance the research and practice on human mobility, including better understanding of behaviour, preferences, and choices. The successful candidate is expected to shape and develop the profile and research agenda on the topic. Over the coming years, significant impact and external funding must be secured – and as part of that, collaboration with international academia, society, as well as technical groups across DTU, is awaited.

The new professor has a strong proven track record in research at an international level. We expect the candidate to exhibit academic leadership, attract grants, strengthen research-based advice, and build a fruitful environment based on the professorship. Particular focus will be on our public sector support and societal impact.

You will bring the following:

  • PhD in a relevant topic and discipline related to human mobility, e.g. from Social Data Science, Network Science, Transportation Science, Economics, Geography, Physics, or Computer Science
  • Experience from various application areas within the mobility and/or transport domain, and a strong list of publications in these areas
  • Experience with or interest in scientific advice and public sector consultancy
  • A solid international stakeholder network within and beyond academia
  • An ambition to push boundaries and define future research agendas solving societal challenges
  • Solid track record in teaching as well as development course portfolios and educations in the field

You are expected to take a role in teaching at e.g. BSc, MSc, PhD, and executive level. Candidates must be enthusiastic about teaching and interacting with students at different levels and should have had successfully supervised thesis and research projects at different levels.

DTU employs two working languages: Danish and English. You are expected to be fluent in at least one of these languages, and in time are expected to master both.

You will be assessed against the responsibilities and qualifications stated above and the following general criteria:

  • Documented experience and quality of teaching and curriculum development
  • Research impact and experience, funding track record and research vision
  • International impact and experience
  • Societal impact
  • Innovativeness, including commercialization and collaboration with industry
  • Leadership, collaboration, and interdisciplinary skills
  • Communication skills

    Salary and terms of employment

The appointment will be based on the collective agreement with the Danish Confederation of Professional Associations. The allowance will be agreed upon with the relevant union.

Starting date according to mutual agreement. The position is a full-time position.
