Kieran Larkin

Macroeconomist; Assistant Professor at IIES, Stockholm; PhD from UCL

[Erik Öberg @ek_oberg]

***Post-Doc Opportunity***

Join me, Mikael Carlsson, Oskar Nordström Skans and Karl Walentin in studying heterogeneity in consumption-savings behavior using high-quality Swedish admin data.

The position is 3 years, with little to no teaching, ample time for your own research, and we provide mentorship and support in all dimensions. The position is designed so to be a springboard for a research career (our outgoing Post-Doc Marco D'Amico on the program is now joining Reserve Bank of Australia as a tenured research economist).

Relevant both for macroeconomists with data skills and for applied economists with a macro interest.

Please apply, and please help me spread this widely!

A job ladder model with incomplete markets links wealth to job search over the life cycle. It provides a new microfoundation for all three inputs in F(K, AL) and offers novel insights into how redistributive policies affect aggregate output and welfare.

We may thus expect young inventors to create products for young people, or sailors to build the best possible sailing ropes..and so on.
