Senior Analyst

Our clients operate at the frontiers of innovation - we advise technology companies driving change, global investors funding the future, the giants of sport and entertainment, and influential individuals on the communications and policy challenges that define their reputations. Our work spans corporate and financial communications, policy and public affairs to engage regulators and policymakers, policy communications and leadership communications. We underpin the full breadth of our capabilities with research-driven insights and campaigns. We're also pioneering AI-enhanced advisory work for both our clients and internal innovation, using technology to unlock insights from data at unprecedented scale and speed.

Great communications and policy advice starts with brilliant research and analysis. As a Senior Analyst at Milltown Partners, you'll bring a more developed perspective to that work – not just producing the analysis that informs our advice, but beginning to shape it. You'll have enough experience to work with greater independence, take ownership of your outputs, and start to contribute meaningfully to how we solve problems for clients.

You'll work on live challenges across a range of sectors and issue types. You might be leading the media and stakeholder analysis for a technology company navigating a regulatory investigation, or researching investor perceptions to inform a fundraising strategy. The work is substantive, the clients are sophisticated, and the expectation is that you'll bring a clear point of view, not just a summary.

We're looking for people who are ready to apply and develop what they know in a high-standards advisory environment.

• Strong written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to write independently for different audiences and purposes

• Experience conducting research and translating findings into clear, logical analysis and arguments

• Understanding of how reputation management and corporate storytelling work in practice, including how communications shapes outcomes for influential organisations and individuals

• Experience using AI tools (eg. Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini) effectively, safely and critically

• Interest in the opportunities and challenges facing the technology industry

• Intellectual curiosity about a broad range of subjects relevant to our clients, including technology, policy, investment and media

• A genuine desire to develop advisory skills in business strategy, public policy and communications

• Collaborative instincts - you value working with others and learning from people around you

• A commitment to seeking feedback and acting on it

• Demonstrable interest or experience in one or more of the areas where we work (e.g. technology policy, financial communications, stakeholder engagement)

• Experience using AI tools effectively in an academic or professional setting

• Technical interests - whether that's building websites, apps or other projects

If this sounds like the right fit, we'd love to hear from you.
