"As a graphic designer, I’m energised by the chance to create visuals for products that reach audiences across Europe. Last year, I had the privilege of designing the layout for the EU Strategic Agenda — a document that defines the EU’s priorities and strategic direction for the years ahead.

What drives me most is working in a studio environment with fellow graphic designers from diverse backgrounds; their insights push my creative thinking and spark fresh, original solutions.

The fast-paced and ever-evolving nature of our work means no two days are the same — whether we’re shaping branding for the Education Committee’s 50th anniversary or crafting striking visuals for research on brain–computer interfaces."

“Hi, I am Carmen, and I am Romanian. I joined Euratom Safeguards in 2021 as a nuclear inspector being responsible for planning and coordination of short notice inspections.

My position has a crosscutting function throughout the directorate, requiring continuous coordination and cooperation with all units and IAEA. Every day there are new challenges: use of innovative technologies, travelling to various locations etc. I am performing different tasks: from inspections on the field to meetings with specialists from all over Europe and beyond, while exchanging experiences and ideas.

We are working together to keep the world safer for us and future generations and this is very challenging and stimulating.

If you would like to do such amazing job, please join us.”

“Having grown up between Wallonia and Flanders and having later spent ten years as a young adult in Germany, multilingualism and multiculturalism have always been a part of my life. Working for the Council of the EU combines my passion for language, my multicultural background and my profound belief in the European project. My work as a French-language translator is meaningful and directly serves my fellow citizens and my continent. Due to the very political nature of the Council, deadlines are short and flexibility is required, which means our work can be challenging, but also very stimulating and rewarding.”

"Working as an Assistant Audiovisual Producer is an exciting opportunity to blend creativity, coordination, and strategic communication. I get to be creative every day, helping turn ideas into videos and visuals that really connect with people. It’s a busy role where you need to stay organized and work well with others, but that’s what makes it interesting. I love how the job mixes teamwork, storytelling, and creativity to produce visuals and videos that catch attention and help people understand important messages in a simple and engaging way."

"At Eurostat we’re developing the European statistics of tomorrow. 

As a statistician, I could not have been part of such a variety of challenging and meaningful projects anywhere else. 

At the heart of the European Statistical System, this is the place to do exciting stuff while making a difference!"

“At the Legal Service of the General Secretariat of the Council, I have the opportunity to collaborate closely with colleagues from all EU Member States, working in all EU languages, and contributing to the quality of EU legislation.

As a lawyer-linguist, I especially enjoy working as a quality advisor and ʻchef de fileʼ, overseeing a team of lawyers and other administrators within the Council and from other institutions to legally and linguistically finalise the base language (English) version of legislative files. In these roles, strong coordination and leadership qualities are essential to completing all tasks within tight deadlines.”

"As a graphic designer in the DG COMM visual communication team, I have the opportunity to bring the European Commission's political priorities to life. Every day, I work on transforming complex messages into clear and compelling visuals across various media platforms, from print to digital, tailored for diverse audiences in close collaboration with my social media and audiovisual colleagues.  

I’ve a passion for design and branding, and I have the chance with my job to create visual identities that effectively communicate the Commission’s key actions. I also play a crucial role in maintaining the corporate Commission visual identity and, ensuring a harmonious and coherent image that resonates with citizens. This role allows me to give trainings to inform colleagues about the visual rules and to collaborate with the graphic designers across all the Commission's departments.

As part of a presidential service, I'm proud to support the communication efforts of the President of the Commission. It’s a dynamic environment where creativity meets strategy, and I’m thrilled to be at the heart of it all!"

“Working for the Quality of Legislation (LEG) team at the Legal Service is to be part of a highly professional and inspiring team.

We constantly seek and find the best way to apply drafting rules to exciting aspects of Union life such as the Covid crisis, rules on chemicals, the environment, health and safety protection, and finance. There is a strong reliance on team discussions to achieve the best approach for new situations – and discussions are invariably collegial and fruitful: no colleague is alone, we find solutions together.

On a daily basis, I feel that my colleagues and I are playing a meaningful, useful and vital role in Union law, and in participating in the project of an ever-closer Union, for citizens and businesses, in all 24 languages.”

“Translating for the European Union is for me not only a dream job, but also a way to bring the EU closer to citizens, giving them the opportunity to read and understand in their language what our Union does for them. Quality and speed are of the essence at the Council and this is – I believe – the most thrilling part: delivering accurate texts while meeting the strict deadlines linked to the political context. From security and defence to fishing through terminology, I'm confronted every day with a variety of topics which make my work even more diverse and interesting.”

“At the Joint Research Centre of the European Commission, I can work at the forefront of technology for the common good—a unique combination. 
My team conducts applied research to support EU policies and regulations on AI and digital platforms. 
 
As part of our mission, we have to analyse and understand some of the most advanced AI systems and algorithms, with a tremendous impact on how we perceive the world and interact with one another. In essence, we use science and technology to make the online world safer, and to support the uptake of AI in Europe.”
