We are

The Translation Centre for the Bodies of the European Union (CdT) is an agency of the European Union (EU) based in Luxembourg. It was established in 1994 by Council Regulation (EC) No 2965/94 (1), recast Regulation (EC) No 2610/95 (2) in 1995 and Regulation (EC) No 1645/2003 (3) in 2003, with the mission to provide translation services to the other decentralised EU agencies. It performs and charges for these services on the basis of a cooperation agreement signed with each customer. Today it translates for 60 EU agencies, institutions and other bodies.

The Centre’s second mission is to actively participate in cooperation between the EU’s translation services. The objective of this interinstitutional cooperation is to rationalise working methods, to harmonise procedures and to make overall savings in the field of EU translation.

The Centre currently employs approximately 200 staff and has an annual budget of about EUR 46 million.

The Centre’s work is based on the conviction that a high-quality service and a strong client relationship can effectively contribute to meeting the translation needs of its clients and thus help implement the EU’s strategic framework for multilingualism. Working with the Centre means having a single, reliable partner offering a multitude of language services covering all EU language combinations — and more.

Independence and declaration of interests

The Director will be required to make a declaration of commitment to act independently in the public interest and to make a declaration in respect of any interests which might be considered prejudicial to his/her independence. Applicants must confirm their willingness to do so in their application.

Selection and appointment

A pre-selection panel will be set up for the selection process. This panel will invite applicants with the best profile for the specific requirements of the post to an interview, selected on the basis of their merits and the criteria set out above. Applicants shortlisted by the pre-selection panel will then be called for an interview with the European Commission’s Consultative Committee on Appointments (CCA) and will have to undergo testing by an assessment centre run by external recruitment consultants. Applicants who are shortlisted by the CCA will then be interviewed by the relevant Commissioners.

Following these interviews, the Commission will adopt a shortlist of successful applicants, which will be communicated to the Management Board of the Centre. The latter will interview the shortlisted applicants and appoint the Director from among them. Inclusion on the shortlist does not guarantee appointment. Applicants may be required to undergo further interviews and/or tests in addition to those indicated above.

Equal opportunities

The Centre applies a policy of equal opportunities and non-discrimination in accordance with Article 1d of the Staff Regulations (6).

Conditions of employment

The Director will be appointed as a temporary agent of the Centre at grade AD 14 pursuant to Article 2(a) of the Conditions of Employment of Other Servants of the European Union (6) for a 5-year period, which may be renewed once.

The place of employment is Luxembourg, where the Centre is based.

Application procedure

Before submitting your application, you should carefully check whether you meet all the eligibility criteria, in particular those regarding the required type of diplomas and professional experience.

If you wish to apply, you must do so via the Internet by going to the website https://ec.europa.eu/dgs/human-resources/seniormanagementvacancies/ and following the instructions there concerning the various stages of the procedure

You have to complete your online registration in time. We strongly advise you not to wait until the last few days before applying, since heavy Internet traffic or a fault with your Internet connection could lead to the online registration being terminated before you complete it, thereby obliging you to repeat the whole process. Once the deadline for submission of applications has passed, you will not be able to apply. Late registrations via normal e-mail will not be accepted as a general rule.

You need a valid e-mail address. This will be used to confirm the creation of your file and to keep you informed about the outcome of the selection procedure. Please, inform the European Commission about any change in your e-mail address.

You will have to upload a CV in Word or PDF format and to enter, online, a motivation letter (maximum 8 000 characters) in one of the EU official and working languages.

On completion of your application, you will receive a registration number; please keep this number, since it will be used for further contacts during the selection procedure. When you receive this number, the application process is finished — it is the confirmation that you have registered your data correctly.

If you do not receive a registration number, your application has not been registered!

Please note that it is not possible to monitor progress of your application online. You will be contacted directly regarding the status of your application.

If you have a disability that prevents you from registering online, you may submit your application (CV and motivation letter) on paper
   (7) by registered mail, postmarked no later than the closing date for registration. All subsequent communication between you and the Commission will be by post. In this case, you must enclose with your CV and motivation letter a certificate attesting your disability, issued by a recognised body. You should also set out on a separate sheet of paper any special arrangements you think are needed to make it easier for you to take part in the selection process.

If you require additional information or if you encounter technical problems, please send an e-mail to HR-A2-MANAGEMENT-ONLINE@ec.europa.eu.

Deadline

The registration deadline is 15 July 2014. Online registrations will close at 12.00 p.m. (midday), Brussels time.

The Commission reserves the right to extend the closing date of this vacancy by publication in the Official Journal of the European Union only.

Protection of personal data

The Commission and the Translation Centre for the Bodies of the European Union will ensure that applicants’ personal data are processed as required by Regulation (EC) No 45/2001 of 18 December 2000 of the European Parliament and of the Council 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 (8).
