There is more to the RCN than you might think. We’re a trade union with a membership of over half a million nurses, midwives, nursing support workers and students. We support their practice, represent them, lobby on their behalf, and develop them. We exist to make a positive difference – to the working lives of our members and ultimately to standards in patient care.
As Senior Economist you’ll use your positive attitude, your knowledge of economic concepts and how they can be applied to real world problems and your ability to deliver economic analysis and modelling to underpin RCN policy recommendations.
We'll look to you to lead the development of policy recommendations relating to fiscal public policy impacting the nursing profession in the UK.

*We offer a competitive pay structure with annual pay progression until you reach the top of the salary scale. We normally offer new employees the first point of the salary range, although you may be able to negotiate a higher starting salary depending on your skills, experience and current salary.
Our hybrid working model allows for up to 60% of your working time to be carried out from home. At least 40% of your working time will be spent working in person.
