Are you looking to land an EU role this autumn without waiting in the extremely slow and hyper-competitive EPSO competition pipeline?
💼 Decentralised agencies across Europe recruit directly through their own selection procedures, offering faster pathways into the EU civil service.
📢 This week’s spotlight covers 13 live vacancies across Tallinn 🇪🇪, Frankfurt 🇩🇪, Alicante 🇪🇸, Bilbao 🇪🇸, Florence 🇮🇹, Valletta 🇲🇹, and The Hague 🇳🇱.
📈 Roles range from FG III and FG IV contract agents up to AD 9 and AD 10 senior leadership profiles, with almost all positions offering indefinite contract potential.
📌 Insider Tip: When preparing your application for agency selections, align your CV and motivation directly with each bullet under the “Selection Criteria”. Agency selection boards initially whet candidates against those exact competencies before deciding who gets invited to the written assessment and interview.
💰 We have calculated the actually take-home pay and allowances package (adjusted by the correction coefficient) so you know what to expect, as most EU institutions only list the basic salary for each post.
💬 Swipe through the carousel slides to see the full salary packages across each grade, and check out comment 1️⃣ for the direct application links!
