Joining the Council team means getting:

  • first-hand experience of the work of the GSC;
  • EU knowledge, insight into the processes and policies of the EU institutions;
  • the opportunity to be part of the Council’s day-to-day business  
  • the opportunity to work in a multicultural, multilingual and multi-ethnic environment.

If you are a EU citizen or coming from a candidate country that has concluded EU accession negotiations and have very good knowledge of at least two EU official languages and have not benefited from any kind of training (paid or unpaid) or employment for more than 6 weeks within an EU institution, body, agency or office, do not miss this opportunity and submit your application by 28 September 2021.
