Who we are
Since 1843, The Economist Group has championed independence, excellence and openness, helping people understand and tackle the critical challenges shaping the world. Today, we are building on that legacy as a global media and information-services company powered by digital innovation, analytical rigour and evidence-based insight.
Across our three businesses - The Economist, Economist Enterprise and Economist Education - we deliver trusted analysis and insights to individuals and organisations in more than 170 countries. United by a shared purpose to drive progress, we empower decision-makers to make sense of change and chart a course through an increasingly complex world.
As a colleague, you will be part of a culture that values ideas, encourages ownership and holds itself to high standards. We invest in people who are curious, thoughtful and adaptable, whether they are launching new products, reporting on global events or harnessing emerging technologies such as AI to improve how we work. Here, fresh thinking is taken seriously, ambition is matched by integrity, and great work is recognised. Working across disciplines, geographies and perspectives, we are united by a commitment to innovation, excellence and creating meaningful impact.
We are looking for a highly analytical and detail-oriented Manager, Trading to support subscription performance reporting, analysis, and insight generation. Reporting to the VP, Trading, this role plays a key part in ensuring our marketing and commercial teams have timely, accurate performance data and understand the story behind the numbers.
You will support the development of reports, dashboards, and insights across our global subscription performance—tracking acquisition trends, channel efficiency, campaign impact, and regional performance. You will also contribute to analysis that informs commercial target-setting, performance forecasting, and media efficiency.
This is not a campaign execution role. Instead, you will work closely with the Trading, Growth Marketing, Finance, and Data teams to surface opportunities, assess performance risks, and improve reporting tools. It’s an ideal role for someone with strong technical and analytical skills who is eager to work in a high-impact, insight-driven environment.
