Your role

As a trainee, you will:

    * support and maintain the ECB’s information management policies, procedures and guidance;

    * develop and enhance guidance and training material to raise staff awareness of, and encourage adherence to, the ECB’s information management policies and procedures.

This traineeship offers you an excellent opportunity to obtain experience in providing information services in an institutional environment and to gain insight into various topics related to the ECB’s activities. You will be part of a dynamic and multicultural team that strives for continuous innovation to make a positive impact on the lives of European citizens.

    * in addition to the above, a readiness to use digital tools and technologies, e.g. MS Teams, Zoom, digital whiteboards, and apps;

    * a working knowledge of the MS Office package, in particular Word, Excel, PowerPoint and Outlook;

    * an awareness of, and interest in, the role and functioning of the ECB;

    * an advanced (C1) command of English and an intermediate (B1) command of at least one other official language of the EU, according to the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages [2].

You are curious and eager to learn, and want to further develop your ability to analyse complex information. You are keen to collaborate with others, pursue team goals and learn from other people’s diverse perspectives. You strive to know and anticipate stakeholder needs, and will signal any need for change and propose alternative solutions.

You are motivated to contribute to the ECB’s mission, to serve the citizens of the EU as a member of a public institution and to work with colleagues from all over Europe. You are keen to be part of our team and to use your skills and competencies to achieve the aims of this position.
