Brussels-based (or hybrid with regular travel to Brussels) tendersglobal.net start 1 May tendersglobal.net full-time (negotiable) 

Who we are 

ZOE Institute for Future-fit Economies, is an independent think & do tank active at the EU level. We are dedicated to policy-oriented research and evidence-driven advocacy for a future-fit economy. At the interface of politics, research, and civil society in the EU, we develop impulses for an economy that enables people to live well within planetary boundaries. 

We are a small team that values an appreciative atmosphere and good communication. Further we offer: 

Key Responsibilities 

As part of a motivated and impact-driven team you will carry out a variety of tasks, including: 

The specific set of priority tasks and responsibilities will be decided together based on the list above and the selected candidate’s specific background and skills. 

Who we are looking for 

We are looking for people that share our core principles: value orientation, sustainability, agility, self-responsibility, co-creation and flat hierarchies. Your profile would include the following skills, background, and knowledge:  

In addition, some of the following competencies fit well into our team but are not a requirement: Master’s degree in economics, political economy, EU policy and governance or equivalent policy-making knowledge and skills acquired through other demonstrable means; and knowledge of participative and co-creative processes such as design thinking. 

Conditions 

The weekly workload is 40 hours whereby working hours can be arranged flexibly. The position is planned to start, ideally, by 1st of May. We wish for a regular presence in Brussels; however, we support a hybrid work environment. The gross wage will be between €4,500–€5,500 per month, depending on the competences and experience. The contract will be for one year initially; however, the position is intended to contribute to the long-term development of the organisation; for this reason, we aim for a longer-term fit. 

Diversity 

We believe that our society’s behaviour disproportionately hurts the most marginalised people – including people of colour, people from working class backgrounds, people with disabilities, women and LGBTIQ people. We are committed to challenge this through our work for socially just development and by creating a diverse workplace. Hence, we strongly encourage applications from people who are members of marginalised communities.
