Temporary Agent posts (indefinite duration) in the GUE/NGL Group are always advertised on this site and across the EU institutions.

Contract Agent posts (fixed term and, usually, short term) often arise on an ad hoc basis to meet an immediate need.
Interested and qualified candidates (a two-year post-secondary diploma, or a second-level qualification plus three years relevant professional experience is the absolute minimum) are invited to submit a EuroPass CV (2-3 pages) plus a motivation letter (one page) to [email protected].
In the Subject line, using up to 25 character spaces, describe the position/policy area you are suited to, e.g., Accountant, Bookkeeper, International Affairs, Social policy, Secretary etc.
You will receive an automated response but we will not be able to engage in any exchange beyond that because our resources simply do not allow it.
To facilitate the automated response, please use a private external email address. We can’t arrange a response to .ep/.europarl.eu addresses.
Emails and their contents will be automatically deleted after 12 months but, in the meantime, we will examine expressions of interest for an appropriate profile whenever we are planning to engage a contract agent.
If any of these conditions pose a problem for you for data protection or other reasons, please do not send a CV to this address.
