Castalia Ltd

Castalia is an international firm with offices in Wellington, Paris, Sydney, and Washington D.C. Castalia is a multi-disciplinary firm combining economics, law, finance and engineering. We undertake challenging assignments, advising governments, large corporations and international organisations like the World Bank.

Our work focuses on reforming and regulating infrastructure sectors; using aid effectively and promoting efficient use of natural resources; developing public-private partnerships and managing transactions; designing better markets and enabling competition; and designing commercial, regulatory and competition strategies for corporations.

What we offer you

Castalia offers interesting, challenging work with plenty of variety. We offer international travel and potential to work out of the Washington D.C. or Sydney office. We provide support for your professional development, competitive remuneration and opportunities for promotion in an expanding firm. A flat management structure at Castalia helps ensure all staff members are able and encouraged to provide meaningful input into how the company is managed.

Fun!

Castalia has an informal team-based culture.  We organise regular social events and try to fit in  non-work activities on overseas missions.

Why it’s a challenge

From the outset you will deal with issues of national and international significance and issues critical to the business value of major companies. You will be working across several time zones at one time, and with colleagues who are located all over the world.

Castalia undertakes a varied mix of developing and developed market work, more than half of which is offshore, with an emphasis on developing countries in Africa, Asia, Eastern Europe, Latin America and Oceania.

Why it’s worth it

Working at Castalia gives you a chance to make a difference—much of our work is about helping develop infrastructure in developing countries and making people’s lives better. We provide the opportunity to work alongside nationally and internationally recognised thought leaders.
