Call for expression of interest for contract agents for temporary assignments (EMEA, London)
(2008/C 217/09)
The Agency is responsible for co-ordinating the evaluation and supervision of medicinal products for human and veterinary use in the European Union (see Regulation (EC) No 726/2004 of the European Parliament and of the Council — OJ L 136, 30.4.2004, p. 1). The EMEA was established in January 1995. It has many close contacts with the European Commission, 27 EU Member States, EEA-EFTA countries and many other groups in government and the private sector. The Agency is a stimulating multicultural working environment.
Further information on the EMEA and its activities is readily accessible through the Internet; our webaddress is: http://www.emea.europa.eu
The EMEA wishes to set up a roster of candidates interested to work for temporary assignments under the contract agent contract. The job profiles are published in a separate document available on EMEA's website.
Selected candidates will be included on a reserve list and may be offered a temporary assignment which can range from three months to five years under the contract agent contract in accordance with the Conditions of employment of other servants of the European Communities (OJ L 56, 4.3.1968) (1) and EMEA's general implementing provisions on the procedures governing the engagement and the use of contract staff at EMEA (2).
A temporary assignment may include replacements of EMEA temporary agents (for example maternity leave, paternity leave, family leave, parental leave, unpaid leave or long term sickness) or to work on specific short-term projects if funds are available. In no way can the contract agent contract lead to a temporary agent contract without the successful outcome of an additional selection procedure. Contract agent contracts may not be renewed more than once.
The place of employment shall be Canary Wharf, London.
Candidates must be nationals of a Member State of the European Communities, or of Iceland, Norway or Liechtenstein, on condition that they have full rights as a citizen.
Candidates must have fulfilled any obligations imposed on them by laws concerning military service and meet the character requirements for the duties involved.
The complete conditions and job description should be downloaded from the EMEA website: http://www.emea.europa.eu/htms/general/admin/recruit/recruitnew.htm Applications must be made electronically using the form available on the EMEA website. Applications must be sent no later than midnight on 24 September 2008. Please note that due to the large numbers of applications EMEA receives, when reaching the deadline for submission of applications, the system may have problems to process the large amounts of data. Applicants are therefore advised to send in their application well ahead of the deadline.
If you wish to receive notification of vacancy publications electronically please register online at: http://www.emea.europa.eu/ under ‘Online Mailing Service’.
