Izzie Compton, Economic Development Consultant – HJA
My role as an economic development consultant is to undertake research and analysis of economic data to inform environmental and economic impact assessments, economic case making, business cases and strategy development. My work covers issues such as jobs, clean energy, investment, employment of local people, skills, productivity, infrastructure and sites and premises. I joined HJA as an Assistant Consultant three years ago with no prior experience in the world of economic development. Since then, I have hugely enjoyed contributing to interesting projects with the potential to facilitate structural economic change across the UK. The IED network is a great platform for meeting people in economic development who are also at the start of their careers.
