At the ECA, we care about the wellbeing of our staff. We strive to create a working environment where our staff feel trusted, valued and motivated.


  • Our premises, comprising three buildings on a single site, offer a modern, collaborative, secure and environmentally friendly physical work environment. The facilities we provide help make our staff’s lives easier and more enjoyable (canteen, cafeterias, sports facilities, family room, etc.). We equip our staff with all the IT tools and infrastructure they need to work flexibly and effectively.

  • Our staff have the option of hybrid working, and can even work from abroad for a limited number of days per year. Flexible work patterns are also available.

     

We offer competitive remuneration and a comprehensive benefits package including leave, a pension scheme, worldwide medical insurance cover for staff and their dependents, and life and disability insurance. Basic salaries are set by the EU Staff Regulations. Salary information is available here.

Various allowances (expatriation, household and child allowances) may be added to the basic salary, depending on individual situation and family circumstances. The gross salary is exempt from national tax but is subject to EU tax and a solidarity levy.
