Useful information

Applications will be accepted from nationals of EUROCONTROL Member States only. The selected candidate may be required to provide documentary evidence confirming they meet the minimum education requirements. They will be informed if and when specific evidence is needed. Please note that no offer (for external candidates) or appointment (for internal candidates) will be made until the necessary evidence, if required, is validated. The selected candidate will be appointed for a period of 5 Year(s) in accordance with the Staff Regulations governing officials at EUROCONTROL. Internal staff with an undetermined appointment will keep their current type of appointment duration. Renewal(s); This appointment may be renewed several times, but its total duration, including all renewal periods, may not exceed nine (9) years. Conversion: Conversion to an undetermined duration appointment is possible where all of the following cumulative conditions are met: the post is confirmed as being of a lasting nature; the staff member has completed at least five years of service; the staff member’s performance has been satisfactory; and the conversion is in the interests of the service. Conversion is therefore not automatic. The selected candidate must successfully complete a probationary period of nine (9) months before being established in the post. Internal candidates: This post entails management activities. Established staff members will therefore have to serve a confirmation period of 9 months. This period may be shortened to 6 months if the successful candidate is appointed following a competition preceded by a previous temporary assignment to the post for which they were selected. The Director General may also decide not to make subject to this provision if that official has previously been assigned, for a period of 2 years or more, to a post similar to that for which they have been selected and which entailed the same level of management responsibilities. The successful candidate shall be appointed at the grade set out in this vacancy notice, or if a group of grades has been published for a job level, in principle at the basic grade of the published job level.
