Communication Unit

The Directorate-General for Infrastructure and Logistics (DG INLO) is responsible for overseeing the European Parliament's vast infrastructure portfolio, which spans around 1.3 million square meters of building space across Europe. This includes a variety of tasks that are crucial to ensuring the smooth functioning and sustainability of the Parliament's operations. DG INLO's responsibilities go beyond just building management, it is also in charge of a range of essential services such as catering, mail distribution, furniture management, and transport for Parliament Members and staff. This comprehensive approach ensures that all physical and logistical needs are met, supporting the European Parliament's political activities in a sustainable way.  

More particularly, the Communication Unit in the Directorate of Resources prepares and implements the communication plan of DG INLO. It ensures our communications are clear, transparent, and accessible to a diverse group of internal and external stakeholders. It organises and implements communication actions to promote DG INLO actions and the vast array of projects that form the European Parliament’s building legacy.

The intern will have the opportunity to collaborate directly with the staff in charge of implementing and overseeing the implementation of DG INLO’s communication plan, employing a multichannel approach while leading and supporting various campaigns and initiatives, including communications, online posts, brochures, and publications.

• Ensuring adherence to editorial and design guidelines as per EP's brand book;
• Ensuring digital accessibility and compliance with data protection standards;
