We are an organisation that exists to drive progress. That's the “red thread” that connects everyone at The Economist Group (TEG). Our businesses share a devotion to innovation, independence and rigour in their fields of expertise. We empower people to understand and tackle the critical challenges and changes facing the world. Our analytical rigour, global expertise and evidence-based insights enable individuals and organisations to make sense of these shifts and chart a course through them.
We deliver analysis and insights in many formats to subscribers and clients in 170 countries through our four businesses, The Economist, Economist Impact, Economist Intelligence and Economist Education, which uphold our global reputation for excellence and integrity.
Our team of 250 colleagues is at the heart of The Economist Group’s digital-first agenda. Together, we are delivering user-friendly, high-quality digital products that bring data, intelligence and analysis to our growing global audiences across all our four businesses.

Whether it involves creating new products for the Economist Intelligence Unit, conceptualising mobile applications that deliver personalised content, or enhancing our flagship website, economist.com, the Technology team plays a crucial role in shaping how we attract, convert, engage, and retain our 1.2 million subscribers.
The Technology team collaborates closely with other teams to engineer innovative solutions that cater to the evolving needs of our subscribers. This includes leveraging advanced technologies and methodologies to enhance the acquisition of new subscribers, optimize conversion rates, deliver engaging user experiences, and ensure long-term subscriber loyalty.
