We are seeking a proactive and resourceful Economist to join our dynamic and growing Real Estate Advisory team. In this role you will help clients to think strategically about how their estates and assets could be used to transform the way they work. This could involve providing strategic advice to key decision-makers to better understand their strategy and vision for the future; building the case for investment by identifying and quantifying the impact of a project or programme; or developing robust business cases to unlock critical funding opportunities for our clients.

Each client we work with has unique requirements, challenges, and goals, which means no two projects are ever the same.
You will work on a variety of Turner & Townsend projects and initiatives, supporting the team across healthcare, local government and central government to assess the impact of projects and programmes.
