Läbipaistvus
Kuna komisjon on kohustunud tegutsema läbipaistvalt, avaldavad juhtimisülesandeid täitvad komisjoni töötajad teavet huvide esindajatega peetud kohtumiste kohta ja nende kohtumiste protokollid.
Euroopa Personalivaliku Ameti kohtumised
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.
