EuroBrussels is a leading site that hosts job advertisements related entirely to European Affairs and International Relations jobs. Along with advertising Internships and Traineeships from the European Institutions they also show opportunities in Non-Governmental Organisations (NGOs). It’s also a great site to find entry-level, or further advanced positions in policy, EU and International Affairs.
EURACTIV is a super useful resource for seeing job posts in Brussels for organisations outside of the Institutions. This is a great site for seeking positions working in policy and NGOs. Many of these organisations deal directly and indirectly with the EU Institutions and Agencies so they’re a great way to gain experience working in the policy and advocacy arenas.
