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 an Analyst at Milltown Partners, you'll be the foundation on which our work is built - tracking what matters, spotting what others miss, and turning complexity into clarity for some of the world's most influential organisations.

You'll work on live challenges where the stakes are high and context shifts constantly. Within one team you might be analysing media trends around how AI labs are evolving our world. Within another you could be researching investor perceptions to inform a fundraising strategy. The work is varied, the learning curve is steep, and the impact is real.

We're looking for ambitious, intellectually curious people who think critically about complex problems and are ready to learn how to be an adviser.

• Strong written and verbal communication skills

• Experience conducting research and drawing logical conclusions from what you find

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

• Intellectual curiosity - you enjoy learning about new topics and understanding how things work

• An interest in reputation management, storytelling and how communications shapes outcomes for influential organisations and individuals

• A curiosity about the opportunities and challenges facing the technology industry

• A genuine desire to learn how to advise on 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

• Relevant experience through internships or work in PR, corporate communications, media, policy or research

• Interest in the policy and regulation challenges within the technology industry

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

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

If this sounds like the right place to start your career, we'd love to hear from you.
