Work that reaches the room where the decision is made
Core Group operates at the intersection of analytical methodology, political analysis, and conflict transformation. We work from Beirut because proximity to the subject is part of the method. The pace is operational. The bar is analytical. And the work matters because it arrives before the decision window closes.
We are not building a consultancy. We are building an analytical institution. If you want to produce work that governments, diplomatic missions, and strategic investors rely on in real time, this is the place.
What we look for
Open positions
Seeking a graduate degree in philosophy. A reader of conflict as a problem of ideas, not only of force. Working knowledge of modern Levant history and the post-Ottoman space. Clear writing, careful argument, and the discipline to hold a claim to the evidence it demands. Arabic is an advantage.
Seeking a student or recent graduate in economics. A grounding in monetary and fiscal fundamentals, how budgets are built, and how forecasts are made and tested. Careful with numbers, clear in writing. Familiarity with the region's economies is an advantage.
Apply
Send your CV and an analytical note of up to 1,200 words on a current development in Lebanon or the region. The note is the filter. It tells us how you think.
