Директор: Olivier Salles
Olivier Salles се присъедини към EPSO като нов директор на 16 май 2025 г.
Френският гражданин Olivier Salles притежава магистърски степени по международни отношения и политически науки от университетите Sorbonne и Lyon II.
Той е държавен служител с тридесетгодишна кариера и в EPSO ще приложи своя богат опит в координирането на политики, правни и управленски функции. Той е изпълнявал различни функции в областта на човешките ресурси, финансите и комуникацията във връзка със законодателната дейност в няколко служби на Комисията.
След като е бил административен директор в новосъздадени органи на ЕС, като например Органа за борба с изпирането на пари (ОБИП) и Европейската прокуратура, Olivier не се колебае да поема криещи предизвикателства нови проекти.
По този начин той е в най-добра позиция да се справи с трудностите, пред които е изправена службата EPSO, и да гарантира, че тя изпълнява успешно мисията си на надежден партньор в процедурите за подбор за институциите на ЕС.
