Direktor: Olivier Salles
Olivier Salles alustas EPSO uue direktorina 16. mail 2025.
Olivier on Prantsuse kodanik ning ta on omandanud Sorbonne’i ülikoolis rahvusvaheliste suhete magistrikraadi ja ülikoolis Lyon 2 politoloogia magistrikraadi.
Tema 30aastane karjäär ELi ametnikuna on andnud talle poliitika koordineerimise ning õigus- ja juhtimisvaldkonnas rikkalikult kogemusi, mida EPSO direktorina rakendada. Ta on täitnud eri rolle mitmes valdkonnas, nagu personalihaldus, finantsküsimused ja komisjoni talitustele õigusloomealase tegevuse kohta teabe jagamine.
Olivier on tegutsenud haldusdirektorina mitmes äsja loodud organis, nagu Rahapesu ja Terrorismi Rahastamise Tõkestamise Amet (AMLA) ja Euroopa Prokuratuur (EPPO), mistõttu on ta harjunud ette võtma uusi nõudlikke projekte.
Seega on tal suurepärased eeldused tulla toime EPSO ees seisvate väljakutsetega ja tagada, et EPSO täidab edukalt oma ülesannet olla ELi institutsioonidele valikumenetlustes usaldusväärne partner.

Heike alustas karjääri erasektoris, tegutsedes Brüsselis ja Göteborgis turismi- ja majutussektoris. Seejärel töötas ta rahvusvahelises audiitorühingus.
Edasi suundus ta avalikku sektorisse ja asus 1996. aastal tööle Euroopa Komisjoni, kus ta töötas kõigepealt hariduse, koolituse ja noorte peadirektoraadi finants- ja eelarveüksuses. Sellele järgnesid ametikohad välissuhete peadirektoraadis ning energeetika ja transpordi peadirektoraadis.
2003. aastal ühines Heike vastloodud Euroopa Personalivaliku Ametiga (EPSO) ja hakkas tegelema personaliküsimustega, esmalt konkursi koordinaatorina. Vahepeal töötas ta siseturu ja teenuste peadirektoraadi personaliüksuses ning naasis seejärel 2013. aastal EPSOsse. Sellest ajast alates on ta tegutsenud EPSOs mitmel ametikohal: teste ja katseid koostava rühma juhina, e-valikumenetluse ning testide ja katsete koostamise üksuse juhataja asetäitjana ja praegu EPSO teavitustegevuse ja teabevahetuse üksuse juhataja asetäitjana.
Testide ja katsete koostamise ja läbiviimise üksuse juhataja: Angela Heberling
Angela ühines Euroopa institutsioonide avaliku teenistusega 1993. aasta juulis, kui ta alustas tööd Euroopa Komisjoni keskkonnaosakonnas.
Kahe aasta pärast hakkas ta tegelema personaliküsimustega ja asus tööle Euroopa Komisjoni värbamisteenistuses, mis hiljem integreeriti praegusesse Euroopa Personalivaliku Ametisse (EPSO). Ta on tegutsenud EPSOs mitmel ametikohal: EPSO arengukava rakendamise eest vastutava töörühma liige, kõigi konkursside ja valikumenetluste järelevalve eest vastutava valikuhaldusasutuse juhataja, e-valikumenetluse ning testide ja katsete väljatöötamise üksuse juhataja ning planeerimise ja koordineerimise üksuse juhataja. Praegu töötab ta testide ja katsete koostamise ja läbiviimise üksuse juhatajana.
2020. aasta novembris nimetati ta EPSO direktori asetäitjaks.
Angela on abielus ja tal on kaks last.
