Robert Lodge

Apprentice Economist

Robert is eager to develop his skills in practical economic analysis to further understand the challenges and opportunities for growth at a national, regional and community level.

Robert joined Metro Dynamics in September 2025 as an Apprentice Economist, following the completion of his A Levels. Since joining, he has supported a variety of projects across the firm’s sectors, innovation, and clusters work — including contributions to initiatives with the Hull and East Yorkshire Combined Authority and the Port of Tyne. In parallel with his role, Robert is pursuing a BSc in Economics through a four-year remote programme with the University of Kent. He brings a strong interest in place-based policy and social cohesion and is keen to deepen his involvement in projects that promote inclusive growth and regional development.
