Joining the consulting team in our Berlin office, you will contribute to the firm by developing analysis and conveying insights to enhance clients’ decision making.

The proximity to key decision makers of the Energiewende in Berlin ensures our research agenda remains highly relevant for Germany. Furthermore, Berlin is a gateway for Aurora to further European markets, offering exciting opportunities to work on international projects in countries such as Poland, the Netherlands, the Nordics, Italy and beyond.

The successful applicants will combine technical strength with a strong track record of leadership and performance in team-oriented environments.

You will work in a dynamic, intellectually stimulating, and demanding yet supportive environment.
