Human Resources Unit

The Directorate-General for Information Technologies and Cybersecurity (DG ITEC) delivers digitally advanced, secure, resilient, compliant and sustainable information and communications technology (ICT) services.

The Human Resources Unit of DG ITEC proposes a dynamic and multi-faceted traineeship experience, encompassing a whole range of HR topics, touching upon recruitment, outreach, analysis/reporting, career guidance, HR training, research, and administrative support, just to mention a few key areas. As the unit is small, the trainee will be involved in a wide array of tasks, always under the supervision of the Head of Unit as well as the team members. The traineeship with HR Unit will provide an excellent overview of a full spectrum of HR work in a context of a modern and dynamic organisation.

• The trainee will be fully integrated in the day-to-day work of the Unit comprising seven staff members, which provides 360 degree HR services to a large and diverse Directorate with 603 staff members;
• The entire team is based in Luxembourg while the Directorate-General is located across three working sites of Brussels, Luxembourg and Strasbourg;
• The trainee is expected to assist in the entire recruitment cycle, staff planning and management, unit's outreach activities (attendance and presentation in job fairs and various external and internal recruitment events), providing research and statistical analysis, help to prepare materials for and deliver trainings and presentations on HR matters to staff and external audiences, assist in DG ITEC's trainees' management by helping to organise tailor-made events for them;
• Additionally, the recruited person may elect a longer term project from amongst ongoing horizontal HR special projects falling under the remit of the Unit's mandate.

We are looking for a committed and dynamic colleague, versatile and interested in wide range of HR matters, not afraid to try new things and assume responsibility for diverse files and projects.

We offer purposeful and interesting work, a friendly and well-organised working environment, as well as plenty of contacts with clients from within DG ITEC, Parliament and the outside world.
