Hot on the heels of last week's Career Corner traineeship opportunities, we're back with new opportunities! This time they are jobs with the European Parliament for individuals with disabilities.


THE DETAILS;

The European Parliament has launched a new initiative to empower individuals with disabilities through employment opportunities within its secretariat. The initiative, Positive Action Programme (PAP) is a "pathway designed to facilitate the employment of persons with a disability as contract agents. This initiative offers candidates with a disability the opportunity to work for the EU’s only directly elected institution, and it allows Parliament to ensure a diverse talent pool by attracting competent candidates."

ABOUT THE POSITION:

Contract Agent Positions: Individuals with disabilities are invited to work as contract agents within the Parliament’s secretariat.

One-Year Contract: Successful applicants will be offered a one-year contract, with the potential for extension based on performance and organizational needs.

Database Inclusion: Selected candidates may also be included in a Parliament database for future recruitment opportunities as contract agents.

WHY PARTICIPATE?

  Once an agent, you can actively contribute to the operations of the European Parliament.

With the PAP initiative, individuals with disabilities can advance their professional careers.

Through diverse perspectives and talents, the Parliament enriches its workforce.
