Directorate-General for the Budget

Publication of a vacancy notice for a Principal Adviser function (AD 14) in Brussels

(Article 29, paragraph 2 of the Staff Regulations)

COM/2013/10343

(2013/C 322 A/01)

We are

The European Commission is responsible for implementing many of the budgetary obligations of the European Union. The Directorate-General for the Budget (DG Budget) has the task of ensuring from the budgetary authority the necessary resources to implement EU policies, managing the budget regulatory framework, implementing yearly budgets (revenue and expenditure), drawing up the annual accounts of the institutions, ensuring sound financial management and reporting on budget execution to the European Parliament, the Council and the Court of Auditors for a positive statement of assurance (DAS). It is made up of five directorates based in Brussels and has almost 420 staff.

DG Budget also prepares the rules governing the European Union's finances and, by offering advice and training, promotes sound financial management within Commission departments. In doing this, the Directorate-General plays a decisive role in the administrative reform process designed to give the institution a high-quality public administration with which to accomplish with maximum efficiency the tasks conferred on it by the Treaty.

DG Budget plays a key role in the allocation of financial and human resources as well as in the implementation of financial provisions applicable to them. This also covers financial and human resources allocations to decentralised bodies.

We propose

In the framework of the new multiannual financial framework for the period 2014-2020, the execution of even more programmes will be delegated to executive agencies and decentralised bodies will continue to play an important role to achieve EU policy objectives. Given the size of the budgetary means involved as well as of the human resources and governance implications, DG Budget seeks to recruit a Principal Adviser whose role will be to ensure a coordinated approach towards these entities.

The Principal Adviser will be reporting directly to the Director-General and will be the central point of contact within DG Budget on these matters. His/her responsibilities will include in particular:

| — | providing the Director-General of DG Budget and relevant services with advice, conceptual insights and practical recommendations in view of fostering the efficiency and effectiveness of executive agencies and decentralised bodies, |

Application procedure:

This post might be published in parallel with other senior official posts. Candidates who wish to apply for more than one post must submit a separate application for each one.

Before submitting your application, you should carefully check whether you meet all the eligibility criteria, particularly those concerning the types of diploma and professional experience required.

If you want to apply, you must register via the internet by going to the website

https://ec.europa.eu/dgs/human-resources/seniormanagementvacancies/

and follow the instructions there concerning the various stages of the procedure.

It is your responsibility to complete your online registration in time (3). Do 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 the submission of registrations has passed, you will not be able to do so. Late registrations via electronic or normal mail will not be accepted as a general rule.

On completion of your online registration, you will receive on-screen a registration number. This will be your reference number in all matters concerning this specific selection procedure. When you receive this number, the registration process is finished — it is confirmation that your data are registered.

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

You will have to attach a CV in WORD or PDF format to your application and to enter, online, a motivation letter (maximum 8 000 characters). Both CV and motivation letter must be written in English, French or German.

The selection process will be carried out in English, French or German only (4).

You also need a valid e-mail address. All correspondence around this selection procedure will take place using this e-mail address. You need to keep the Commission informed about any possible changes concerning this address.

Please note that it is not possible to monitor progress of your application online. The European Commission will contact you 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 letter of motivation) on paper by registered mail
   (5)
  , postmarked no later than the closing date for registration. All subsequent communication between the Commission and you will be by post. In this case, you must enclose with your application 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.

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

Closing date:

The closing date for registration is 6 December 2013. Online registration will not be possible after 12.00 noon Brussels time.
