Target audience

We are looking for economists who have knowledge and competences in evaluating and carrying out socio-economic analyses, impact assessments and by that contributing to several regulatory processes the Agency is responsible for. These include processes under the REACH regulation as well as new processes under the Batteries regulation, several Directives related to surface or groundwater protection, and other pieces of legislation that the Agency may be responsible for in the future, e.g. in the field of waste legislation. The work applies a cost-benefit framework following the European Commission’s Better Regulation Guidelines.

The work of an economist in ECHA involves collaborating with scientific and administrative experts in multidisciplinary teams, and working with experts in other regulatory processes and regulations across the Agency.

In addition to knowledge and competences in socio-economic analyses and impact assessments, the ideal candidate can communicate clearly and effectively. They have excellent project management skills, are solution-oriented and proactive, and have the drive to produce high-quality results within the given timelines.
