The BIS offers unique career opportunities in an international environment for monetary and financial PhD economists. We combine the advantages of being a global body with the benefits of being a small, closely knit organisation. Thus, you will find yourself working on a variety of projects while also enjoying direct contact with senior management.
We are a discussion forum for central banks, so you will have opportunities to produce research papers and analytical work of relevance for central bank governors and other decision-makers. At the same time, the international and policy-oriented nature of the BIS will provide you with a distinct perspective that you will find highly stimulating when shaping your research agenda.
From our locations in Basel, Hong Kong and Mexico, you can develop a long-term career or take a major step towards your goals. Whatever your ambitions, being part of our global team will enrich you from both a professional and personal point of view, putting you in the ideal position to learn from the expertise of colleagues from around the world.
To apply, please e-mail your CV, recent research papers and letters of reference, quoting reference BIS-MED-2013, to phd.economists@bis.org. All documentation must be received by 25 November 2012. Shortlisted candidates will be interviewed at the ASSA meetings in San Diego in January 2013.
