Your work will include:

Update and extend the tool for comparing national tax policies used in car taxation in different European countries.
Creation of a new large database on new car registrations with detailed information on each type of registration (i.e. corporate / private channel, emissions, weight, prices, leasing / ownership…)
Data analysis and research on the residual value of vehicles by different powertrains, age and mileage.
Support the organisation with ad hoc research and analysis
In addition, the selected person would also help with other projects within the team to gain a more fulfilling experience in working in the organisation.
