STAFF RECRUITED ON CONTRACTS
In addition to permanent officials, the European Commission often recruits non-permanent
staff. There are two categories of non-permanent staff:
• temporary agents are recruited to fill vacant positions for a set amount of time or
to perform highly specialised tasks.
• contract agents may provide additional capacity in specialised fields where an
insufficient number of officials is available or carry out a number of administrative or
manual tasks. They are generally recruited for fixed-term contracts (maximum 6 years in
any EU Institution), but in some cases they can be offered contracts for an indefinite
duration (in offices, agencies, delegations or representations).

plans, of public finances and budgetary policy within the framework of the Stability and Growth Pact,
the assessment and follow-up of macro-economic developments and imbalances within the
framework of the macro-imbalances procedure and of structural reforms within the framework of
the EU semester.
The successful candidate will be part of a dynamic team of around 25 desk officers dedicated to the
