Directorate for Economy and Growth - Policy Department

The European Parliament’s Directorate-General for Economy, Transformation and Industry (DG ECTI) is responsible for organising the work of Parliament's committees in the field of internal policies and contributing to the exercise and development of the legislative and control powers of the European Parliament.

Within this DG, the Policy Departments provide parliamentary committees with the expertise required for evidence-based policymaking. They produce the Fact Sheets on the European Union, as well as notes, briefings, analyses and studies, either in-house or through public procurement procedures. They also organise events such as workshops and study presentations where external experts meet with MEPs and staff. 

In this capacity, Policy Department 1/A covers the fields of economy and growth related policies in the area of taxation and the internal market, supporting the work of one committee (IMCO) and one subcommittee (FISC).

The objective of this post is to work in the policy fields of the Subcommittee on tax matters (FISC) and the Committee on Internal Market and Consumer Protection (IMCO).
