Remote Conference Services Unit

The Directorate-General for Logistics and Interpretation for Conferences (DG LINC) is the multilingual conference service hub of the European Parliament. Our mission is to enable the European Parliament to achieve its political objectives by providing linguistic, technical and logistical support to meetings and conferences. Our services support the democratic legitimacy of the Institution by helping the Members of Parliament get their message across in any of the official languages. We thus enable the legislative process and make it accessible to the citizens of Europe. This makes DG LINC a very dynamic, collaborative, and unique place of work, with opportunities for connecting with different actors across the Parliament. If you like challenges and are customer-minded then DG LINC could be a great place for you to do a traineeship. 

The Remote Conference Services Unit of DG LINC is the team making sure that our conference facilities are equipped with state-of-the-art technological solutions in order to facilitate effective multilingualism and hybrid meetings. The team is composed of around 50 highly specialised staff members who focus on providing the appropriate and innovative technical solutions to serve their clients' needs. The team is responsible for the successful deployment of the multilingual remote participation (MRP) platform and MRP support teams to meetings, which allow for the provision of interpretation to remote participants.
