Your analytical prowess and deep understanding of economic trends will help governments, businesses, and institutions make informed decisions that drive growth and innovation in the UK and beyond.
AI helps here, but has not taken over
AI can already do some of this job, but the day-to-day work still leans on a person to decide, check and take responsibility. Nothing formally protects this job though, so the safest move is to keep building the judgement AI cannot yet copy.
