**Your team***
- You will be part of the Monetary Analysis Division in the Directorate General Monetary Policy. Our Division has around 40 staff across two sections: the Bank Lending Conditions Section and the Money, Credit and Financial Accounts Section. The Division monitors and analyses monetary and financial developments in the euro area to advise on monetary policy.

Both sections help calibrate standard and non-standard monetary policy measures through bank and non-bank intermediaries. The Division contributes to core policy processes and publications, including staff macroeconomic projections and the Economic Bulletin. We also analyse broader matters from the perspective of monetary policy transmission, such as climate change and central bank digital currencies. Our analysis features in policy notes and presentations for the ECB’s Governing Council and in official publications.

In your role as trainee, you will be part of a team that uses a wide range of datasets and state of the art modelling and data visualisation techniques. This includes microeconometric analysis of granular data and macroeconometric models based on more aggregate data, accounting for macro-financial linkages. Coding, programming and managing large datasets are important aspects of what we do.

**Your role***
- As a trainee you will:

- work with datasets, including macroeconomic and microeconomic data and high-frequency financial data;
- maintain, develop and enhance the Division’s data infrastructure, including its management tools and dashboards;
- work closely with the Division’s economists and research analysts, supporting the team with daily tasks and analytical projects;
- contribute to the Division’s input for policy decision-making by using data analysis and statistical and econometric tools to help with empirical assessments;
- update charts and tables for regular internal and external reports and presentations, liaising with other ECB business areas.

The position offers you excellent opportunities to enhance your quantitative skills and work with experienced economists while gaining insight into analysis and policy within a central bank. You will be part of a multicultural team that strives for continuous innovation to make a positive impact on the lives of European citizens.

**Qualifications, experience and skills***
- Essential:

- a bachelor’s degree or higher in economics, finance, econometrics, mathematics, statistics, data science, social sciences or another related field;
- knowledge of statistical and econometric software, such as Python, R or Stata;

- an understanding of the economic issues covered by the Division;
- 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:

- a master’s degree in economics, finance, econometrics, mathematics, statistics, data science or another related field (or being close to completing a degree in one of these fields);
- experience with statistical software packages, such as Python, R, Stata or MATLAB;
- experience working with relational databases, using SQL or other big data analytic tools;
- experience using visualisation tools, such as Shiny or Plotly/Dash;
- experience in econometrics (especially time series econometrics, econometrics of panel data and microeconometrics), or statistics and data science (e.g. web scraping, text analysis or other advanced machine learning techniques);
- experience with assisting research, such as providing data support for research projects;
