We’re looking for an Analyst to join our Global Education Solutions team at an incredibly exciting time.
This is a fantastic opportunity for someone who is curious about international education and loves getting under the skin of complex questions. You’ll contribute to research, insight and analysis across a wide range of projects — from qualification benchmarking and higher education to language education, STEM, vocational education and bespoke international development work.
You’ll love sinking your teeth into this role if you enjoy careful research, clear thinking and writing that helps people make sense of complexity. You’ll be working on client-facing projects where accuracy, evidence and judgement matter, helping produce reports and outputs that support real decisions in education and qualifications.
This is a role for someone analytical, thoughtful and highly organised — someone who enjoys learning, asking good questions and developing specialist knowledge. You do not need to know every part of international education already, but you should be excited by the chance to build expertise in a field that connects education systems, qualifications and opportunity across the world.
