01The actual work
What will you actually do as a Political Economist at CryptoMize?
01
Read the macro position of every political account — growth, prices, jobs, credit — and translate it into the vocabulary campaigns actually argue in
02
Cost the promises: what each manifesto commitment implies for budgets, borrowing, and prices, with the arithmetic shown line by line
03
Tag policy events to market and sentiment movement — budget days, rate decisions, trade announcements — and grade how much each actually moved
04
Model the scenario set before contested outcomes: what each result means for sectors, currencies, and reform timelines, written before results land
05
Brief strategists in plain macro: the three numbers that matter this cycle, and the two everyone quotes that do not
06
Distinguish structural from cyclical — which voter anger is a wave, which is weather, and what each implies for positioning
07
Maintain the indicator dashboard per account, primary-sourced, with the revision history attached to every series
ROLE RESPONSIBILITIES
As a Political Economist at CryptoMize you will own the economic-political synthesis on live engagements — drawing on macro indicators, sectoral data, fiscal-policy announcements, parliamentary records, and primary-source policy documents to produce the analytical products that feed strategist and client decisions. The role applies rigorous source-discipline before any synthesis reaches a deck, because an unattributed number is the difference between counsel and guesswork.
Quality assurance is a standing duty rather than an occasional task: most organizations discover economic errors when a client decision has already gone wrong, but here economists intercept them upstream — in the data-extraction discipline, the indicator-selection review, and the anomaly-tracing before release. You will maintain the audit trail that lets any synthesis we present be reconstructed line by line, on demand, in front of a client.
Economists here also carry institutional responsibility for the intern program: supervising scoped intern briefs, reviewing their economic syntheses, and feeding intern conversion decisions. The economists who teach well are the ones we promote first, because the desk grows only as fast as its teaching culture.
