DG CLIMATE ACTION (CLIMA)

Publication of a vacancy for a Director (grade AD 14)

(Article 29(2) of the Staff Regulations)

COM/2011/10313

(2011/C 185 A/01)

We are

The mission of Directorate C ‘Mainstreaming adaptation and low carbon technology’ of DG Climate Action is to develop and implement policies and measures in the area of energy, transport, industrial gases and adaptation to the inevitable effects of climate change to ensure that the EU will meet its domestic and international climate change policy objectives. This policy is a central pillar of Europe's 2020 strategy. With regard to mitigating the effects of climate change, the Directorate focuses on the development and implementation of EU legislation in these areas (e.g. the ‘Effort Sharing Decision’ capping 60 % of the EU's greenhouse gases until 2020, carbon capture and storage, CO2 emissions from ground transport including fuel quality, ozone depleting substances, fluorinated gases) as well as support schemes for the large-scale demonstration of low carbon technologies. As regards adaptation, the Directorate spearheads the development and mainstreaming of an EU-wide adaptation policy in close collaboration with other relevant Commission services.

Directorate C employs about 60 members of staff and manages a budget of around EUR 10 million.

We propose

DG Climate Action is looking for a Director who will provide an overall vision and clear guidance in several rapidly developing new policy areas in the field of climate change both at EU level and internationally including the UN. The Director will assume a leading and inspiring role in developing and implementing mitigation (especially in respect of ground transport) and adaptation policies, including the development of innovative instruments for technology demonstration in close cooperation with other relevant Commission departments, especially DG Energy, DG Mobility and Transport, DG Enterprise and Industry, DG Research and Innovation and DG Regional Policy. The added challenge will be to take into consideration other key objectives related to the European 2020 strategy, economic growth, innovation and competitiveness, as well as energy security. The job involves international travelling.
