A.   JOB DESCRIPTION AND ELIGIBILITY

1.   General remarks

The European Parliament has decided to open the procedure for filling a temporary management administrator post (AD 5) in the Directorate-General for Personnel.

The contract will be concluded on an open-ended basis. Recruitment will be at grade AD 5, first step, the basic salary for which is EUR 4 637,77 per month. This salary is subject to the Community tax and to the other deductions provided for by the Conditions of Employment of Other Servants of the European Union (CEOS). It is exempt from national tax. The step at which the successful candidate is recruited may be adjusted in accordance with his or her professional experience. Moreover, in certain circumstances allowances will be paid in addition to the basic salary.

The European Parliament is an equal opportunities employer and accepts applications without discrimination on any ground such as sex, race, colour, ethnic or social origin, genetic features, language, religion or belief, political or any other opinion, membership of a national minority, property, birth, disability, age, sexual orientation, marital status or family situation.

2.   Job description

Working directly under the Director-General of Personnel, the management administrator will perform advisory and research tasks in one or more of the directorate-general’s areas of responsibility.

Based in Brussels (1), he or she will be required to travel on a regular basis between Parliament’s three normal places of work (Brussels, Luxembourg and Strasbourg) and elsewhere.

The management administrator will advise the director-general in all the directorate-general’s areas of responsibility. He or she will provide senior management with assistance in the area of human resources and will be responsible more particularly for relations with the secretariats of political and decision-making bodies as regards staff policy matters.

These duties call for thoroughness, drafting skills, a high degree of confidentiality, the ability to analyse and summarise, forward-planning skills, diplomacy, the ability to liaise comfortably with a wide range of people at all levels and public-speaking skills.

Importance is attached to the ability to deal with a wide range of often complex problems, respond rapidly to changing circumstances and communicate effectively. Candidates must show initiative and strong motivation. They must be capable of working intensively on a regular basis, both on their own and as part of a team, and of adapting to a multicultural and multilingual working environment.

The main tasks to be performed by the management administrator will include:

| — | advising senior management in his or her areas of responsibility, monitoring all the activities of the directorate-general, passing on information to staff above and below him or her in the hierarchy and facilitating interdepartmental relations, |

3.   Eligibility

On the closing date for applications, candidates must meet the following conditions:

(a)   General conditions

Under Article 12(2) of the CEOS, candidates must:

| — | be a national of one of the European Union’s Member States, |
| --- | --- |

—

be a national of one of the European Union’s Member States,

| — | enjoy full rights as a citizen, |
| --- | --- |

—

| — | have fulfilled any obligations imposed on them by the laws on military service, |
| --- | --- |

—

have fulfilled any obligations imposed on them by the laws on military service,

| — | provide character references appropriate to the performance of the duties concerned. |
| --- | --- |

—

provide character references appropriate to the performance of the duties concerned.

(b)   Specific conditions

(i)   Qualifications and skills required

Candidates are required to have a level of education which corresponds to completed university studies of at least 3 years’ duration attested by an officially recognised diploma in an area relevant to the job description. The selection committee will take account of the differences between the Member States’ education systems. Examples of the minimum qualifications required are given in the table included in the guide for candidates.

(ii)   Professional experience required

No professional experience is required. Professional experience relevant to the job description would be an advantage, however.

(iii)   Knowledge of languages

Candidates must have a thorough knowledge of one of the European Union’s official languages (language 1): Bulgarian, Croatian, Czech, Danish, Dutch, English, Estonian, Finnish, French, German, Greek, Hungarian, Irish, Italian, Latvian, Lithuanian, Maltese, Polish, Portuguese, Romanian, Slovak, Slovenian, Spanish or Swedish

and

a very good knowledge of English, French or German (language 2). Language 2 must be different from language 1 above.

The selection committee will take account of knowledge of other official languages of the European Union.

| Following the judgment handed down by the Court of Justice of the European Union (Grand Chamber) in Case C-566/10 P, Italy v Commission, the European Parliament must state the reasons for limiting the choice of the second language to a small number of EU official languages.


  Candidates are thus informed that the three second-language options for this selection procedure, i.e. English, French and German, have been laid down in the interests of the service, which require newly recruited staff to be immediately operational and to be able to communicate effectively in their daily work.


  It has long been the practice to use mainly English, French, and German for internal communication in the European Parliament, and these are also the languages most often needed when communicating with the outside world and in performing day-to-day work. Furthermore, in staff reports for 2016 the three languages most used by staff members in performing their duties, as attested by their assessors, were English (95 %), French (90 %) and German (33 %). For no other official language did that figure exceed 21 %.


  Therefore, in balancing the interests of the service and the needs and abilities of candidates, the European Parliament is entitled to require knowledge of one of those three languages to ensure that, whatever their first official language, all candidates are proficient in at least one of them.


  In addition, in the interests of equality of treatment, all candidates, even if they have one of those three languages as their first official language, are required to have a satisfactory knowledge of a second language, which must be one of those three languages.


  The assessment of specific skills in one of those languages enables the European Parliament to judge whether the candidates can be immediately operational in the environment in which they will be required to work. |

1.   INTRODUCTION

What form does a selection procedure take?

Selection procedures consist of a series of stages in which candidates compete against one another. They are open to all citizens of the European Union who, on the deadline for submission of applications, meet the relevant criteria. They give all candidates a fair opportunity to demonstrate their skills, with a view to discrimination-free selection based on merit.

Successful candidates in a selection procedure are placed on a list of suitable candidates, on which the European Parliament will draw in order to fill the post to which the recruitment notice applies.

A selection committee, consisting of members representing the Administration and the Staff Committee, is appointed for each selection procedure. The proceedings of the selection committee are confidential and are conducted in accordance with Annex III to the Staff Regulations of Officials (1).

Candidates may not under any circumstances approach the selection committee themselves, either directly or indirectly. The appointing authority reserves the right to disqualify any candidate who disregards this instruction.

The selection committee adheres strictly to the eligibility criteria set out in the recruitment notice when deciding whether or not each candidate should be admitted to the selection procedure. Candidates admitted to a previous competition or selection procedure will not automatically be eligible.

In order to select the best candidates, the selection committee compares the candidates’ performance with the aim of assessing their suitability to perform the duties described in the recruitment notice. This means that it must not only assess the candidates’ knowledge, but also identify the best-qualified individuals on the basis of their merit.

Please note that selection procedures take between 6 and 9 months, depending on the number of candidates.

2.   THE VARIOUS STAGES IN A SELECTION PROCEDURE

A selection procedure comprises the following stages:

Receipt of application files

Candidates must submit a complete application file, including the application form specific to the recruitment notice, completed and signed and accompanied by all the requisite supporting documents showing that they meet the general and specific conditions set out in the recruitment notice. Failure to do so will result in exclusion from the competition. The application file must be sent by registered post by the date specified in the recruitment notice. (Dispatch by private courier company will be accepted as equivalent to dispatch by registered post. In such cases, the date of handing-in to the courier company as shown on the delivery form will be taken as the date of dispatch). The address and closing date for applications are given in section C of the recruitment notice.

Assessment of compliance with the general conditions

The Competitions and Selection Procedures Unit will check applications in order to determine whether they are admissible, i.e. whether they have been submitted in the form and by the closing date given in the recruitment notice and whether each candidate meets the general eligibility conditions.

Candidates will therefore
  be automatically eliminated
  if they:

| — | send their application after the closing date, as evidenced by the postmark or by the delivery form of a private courier company, or |
| --- | --- |

—

send their application after the closing date, as evidenced by the postmark or by the delivery form of a private courier company, or

| — | do not send their application form by registered post or by private courier company, or |
| --- | --- |

—

| --- | --- |

—

fail to sign the application form, or

| — | do not meet the general eligibility conditions. |
| --- | --- |

—

do not meet the general eligibility conditions.

After the closing date for applications
  , candidates will be informed individually if their application has been rejected.

A list of the candidates who meet the general conditions set out in the recruitment notice will be drawn up by the appointing authority and forwarded to the selection committee with the application files.

Assessment of compliance with the specific conditions

The selection committee will consider the application files and draw up a list of candidates who meet the specific conditions set out in the recruitment notice. It will base its decisions
  solely
  on the information given on the application form and
  substantiated by supporting documents enclosed with it
  .

Applications must give full details of candidates’ studies, training, knowledge of languages and, where appropriate, professional experience, as follows:

| — | as regards studies: the dates on which they began and ended and the nature of the diploma(s) obtained, as well as the subjects studied; |
| --- | --- |

—

as regards studies: the dates on which they began and ended and the nature of the diploma(s) obtained, as well as the subjects studied;

| — | as regards professional experience: the dates on which the periods of experience began and ended and the precise nature of the duties performed. |
| --- | --- |

—

as regards professional experience: the dates on which the periods of experience began and ended and the precise nature of the duties performed.

Candidates who have published studies or articles or any other texts relevant to the duties set out in the job description should mention these on the application form.

Candidates who do not meet the specific eligibility conditions set out in the recruitment notice will be eliminated at this stage.

The selection committee will inform all candidates by letter of its decision concerning their admission/non-admission to the procedure.

Assessment of qualifications

In order to select the candidates who are to be admitted to the tests, the selection committee will assess the qualifications of the candidates admitted to the selection procedure. It will base its decisions
  solely
  on the information given on the application form and
  substantiated by supporting documents enclosed with it
  (see section 3 below). The selection committee will base its work on criteria which it has laid down in advance, taking account in particular of the qualifications specified in section B.2 of the recruitment notice.

The selection committee will inform all candidates by letter of its decision concerning their admission/non-admission to the tests.

Tests

All the tests are compulsory and eliminatory. The maximum number of candidates who may be included on the list of suitable candidates is laid down in section B.2 of the recruitment notice.

For organisational reasons, candidates may be invited to all the written and oral tests. However, the tests will be marked in the order in which they appear in the recruitment notice. Consequently, if a candidate does not achieve the minimum mark required in one of the tests, the selection committee will not mark the subsequent tests.

The tests of candidates who give up will not be marked.

List of suitable candidates

Only the maximum number of candidates as specified in section B.4 of the recruitment notice will be placed on the list of suitable candidates.

The inclusion of a candidate’s name on the list of suitable candidates means that he or she may be called for interview by one of Parliament’s departments, but it does not constitute either a right to, or a guarantee of, recruitment.

3.   HOW TO APPLY

General points

Before applying, candidates should check carefully whether they meet all the eligibility conditions, both general and specific. To that end, candidates should first read the recruitment notice and this guide and take due note of the relevant requirements.

Although recruitment notices do not specify any age limit, please note that the retirement age for staff is laid down in the Staff Regulations of Officials of the European Union.

Candidates are required to complete the application form (original or copy) which is specific to the recruitment notice and contained in this Official Journal published by the Publications Office of the European Union.

Documents sent after the closing date will not be taken into account.

Candidates who have a disability or whose circumstances are such that they might cause difficulties during the tests (e.g. because they are pregnant or are breastfeeding, or because they have health problems or are undergoing medical treatment) must state that fact on the application form and provide any relevant information so that the Administration can take appropriate measures, where possible. If appropriate, they should enclose with their application form a separate sheet giving details of any arrangements which they consider necessary to help them take the tests.

Candidates must sign the application form. By doing so, they declare on their honour that they meet these conditions and that the information supplied is true and complete.

Supporting documents demonstrating compliance with the specific conditions and assessment of qualifications

Candidates must provide the selection committee with all the information and documents it needs to verify the accuracy of the information given on the application form.

Diplomas and/or certificates attesting successful completion of studies

Candidates must supply photocopies of the diplomas or certificates attesting that they have completed studies of the level required by the recruitment notice.

The selection committee will take account of the different education systems in the European Union Member States.

In the case of post-secondary diplomas, the most detailed possible information must be provided, particularly concerning the subjects studied and the length of time for which they were studied, so that the selection committee can assess the relevance of the diplomas to the duties to be performed.

In the case of diplomas relating to technical or vocational training, further training or specialisation courses, candidates must state whether the course was full time or part time or consisted of evening classes, as well as the subjects covered and the official duration of the courses.

Professional experience

Professional experience will be taken into account only if it has been obtained more recently than the required diploma or certificate. The supporting documents must prove the duration and level of the professional experience, and the nature of the duties performed must be described in as much detail as possible, so that the selection committee can assess the relevance of the experience to the duties to be performed.

All such periods of work experience must be covered by supporting documents, for example:

| — | statements from former employers and the current employer certifying that candidates have the professional experience required for admission to the selection procedure, |
| --- | --- |

—

statements from former employers and the current employer certifying that candidates have the professional experience required for admission to the selection procedure,

| — | if, for reasons of confidentiality, candidates cannot enclose the required evidence of professional experience, it is essential, as a substitute for that evidence, that they enclose photocopies of the employment contract or letter of recruitment and the first and the most recent salary statements, |
| --- | --- |

—

if, for reasons of confidentiality, candidates cannot enclose the required evidence of professional experience, it is essential, as a substitute for that evidence, that they enclose photocopies of the employment contract or letter of recruitment and the first and the most recent salary statements,

| — | where the work has not been performed on behalf of an employer (as a self-employed person, member of the liberal professions, etc.), invoices detailing the services provided or any other relevant official supporting document will be accepted as evidence. |
| --- | --- |

—

where the work has not been performed on behalf of an employer (as a self-employed person, member of the liberal professions, etc.), invoices detailing the services provided or any other relevant official supporting document will be accepted as evidence.

Knowledge of languages

Knowledge of the required languages must be confirmed by a diploma, a certificate or a declaration on the candidate’s honour, to be made on a separate sheet of paper, explaining how that knowledge was acquired.

If, at any stage in the procedure, it is established that the information given on the application form is incorrect or is not substantiated by supporting documents, or that all the conditions set out in the recruitment notice are not met, candidates will be disqualified.

4.   COMMUNICATION

It is the responsibility of candidates to make sure that their application form (original or copy), completed and signed and accompanied by all the supporting documents required, is sent by registered post (3) by the deadline specified, as evidenced by the postmark.

Applications sent by ordinary post or through the internal mail will not be considered. The Competitions and Selection Procedures Unit will not accept applications which are submitted in person.

Acknowledgement of receipt of application files will be given only if an item dispatched by registered post is accompanied by an advice of delivery form.

It is the responsibility of candidates to send a letter, fax or email (4) to the Competitions and Selection Procedures Unit if they do not receive an email concerning their application by the date given in the last paragraph of the recruitment notice.

Any correspondence from a candidate concerning an application must quote the name given in that application and the number of the selection procedure.

All correspondence forwarded by the European Parliament concerning a selection procedure, including invitations to tests, will be sent by email to the address given on the application form. Candidates are responsible for checking their email account regularly (at least twice a week) and for notifying the Competitions and Selection Procedures Unit of any change in their particulars.

All communications concerning the selection procedure should be sent by email to the following mailbox:

PE-199-S@ep.europa.eu

If candidates are no longer in a position to check their email account, it is their responsibility to inform the Competitions and Selection Procedures Unit immediately and to provide a new electronic address.

In order to safeguard the independence of the selection committee, candidates may not under any circumstances approach the selection committee themselves, either directly or indirectly; if they do so, they may be disqualified.

Any correspondence for consideration by the selection committee and any request for information or other correspondence concerning the procedure must be addressed solely to the Competitions and Selection Procedures Unit (4), which will deal with all communications with candidates throughout the selection procedure until it has been completed.

5.   GENERAL INFORMATION

Equal opportunities

The European Parliament takes great care to avoid any form of discrimination.

It is an equal-opportunities employer and accepts applications without discrimination on any grounds such as sex, race, colour, ethnic or social origin, genetic features, language, religion or belief, political or any other opinion, membership of a national minority, property, birth, disability, age, sexual orientation, marital status or family situation.

Requests from candidates for access to information concerning them

Candidates in selection procedures are entitled to be given certain information which specifically concerns them, as described below. The European Parliament may therefore supply the following additional information to a candidate on request:

| (a) | those candidates who are not successful in the written tests and/or who are not among those invited to the oral tests may, on request, obtain copies of their test papers as well as a copy of their personal evaluation sheet setting out the selection committee’s remarks on their performance. All requests must be made within 1 month of the date on which the letter notifying a candidate of the decision ending his/her participation in the selection procedure was sent; |

All requests must be made within 1 month of the date on which the letter notifying a candidate of the decision ending his/her participation in the selection procedure was sent;

| (b) | candidates who are invited to the oral tests but whose names do not appear on the list of suitable candidates will be informed of their results in the various tests only once the list of suitable candidates has been drawn up by the selection committee. These candidates may also obtain copies of their written tests in the same way as outlined under point (a); |
| --- | --- |

(b)

candidates who are invited to the oral tests but whose names do not appear on the list of suitable candidates will be informed of their results in the various tests only once the list of suitable candidates has been drawn up by the selection committee. These candidates may also obtain copies of their written tests in the same way as outlined under point (a);

| (c) | successful candidates will be informed only that they have been included on the list of suitable candidates. |
| --- | --- |

(c)

successful candidates will be informed only that they have been included on the list of suitable candidates.

Requests will be dealt with in accordance with the requirement for the work of the selection committee to be secret, as laid down in the Staff Regulations of Officials of the European Union (Annex III, Article 6), and in compliance with the rules on the protection of individuals with regard to the processing of personal data.

Protection of personal data

The European Parliament, as the body responsible for organising selections, ensures that candidates’ personal data are processed in strict compliance with Regulation (EC) No 45/2001 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 18 December 2000 on the protection of individuals with regard to the processing of personal data by the Community institutions and bodies and on the free movement of such data (5), particularly as regards confidentiality and security.

Travel and subsistence expenses

A contribution will be made towards the travel and subsistence expenses of candidates invited to the tests. Candidates will be given details of the arrangements for this and the rates applicable in the letter inviting them to the tests.

The address given on the application form will be considered to be the place from which the candidate departs to attend the tests to which he or she has been invited. A change of address notified by a candidate after the European Parliament has sent the invitations to the tests will not be taken into consideration, unless Parliament considers that the circumstances invoked by the candidate amount to force majeure or are wholly exceptional.

LUXEMBOURG

This option is available at all stages of the selection procedure.

Please note the broad measure of discretion enjoyed by selection committees, whose decisions are independently arrived at and cannot be changed by the appointing authority. The selection committee’s decisions are subject to review only in the event of a clear violation of the rules governing their work. In that event, a decision by a selection committee may be challenged directly in the General Court without a complaint having first been lodged under Article 90(2) of the Staff Regulations of Officials of the European Union.

This option is available only in relation to decisions taken by the selection committee.

In the case of administrative decisions denying admission to the selection procedure on the grounds that the application does not meet the eligibility criteria set out in section B.1 of the notice, it is possible to appeal to the General Court only after having first lodged a complaint as described above.

Appeals to the General Court may be made only through a lawyer authorised to practise before a court of a Member State of the European Union or of the European Economic Area.

The time limits laid down in Articles 90 and 91 of the Staff Regulations of Officials of the European Union which apply to these two types of appeal start to run either from the date of notification of the original decision adversely affecting you or, only in the case of a request for a review, from the date on which you are notified of the selection committee’s original reply to the request.

Complaints to the European Ombudsman

Any European Union citizen can make a complaint to:

| The European Ombudsman |
