FYEG is op zoek naar enthousiaste stagair(e)

FYEG, de Federation of Young European Greens, is een Europese organisatie die vooral met vrijwilligers werkt. Er is slechts één betaalde kracht (Judith Verwijen) die de hele organisatie coördineert. Deze coördinator wordt in haar taak weliswaar bijgestaan door één of meerdere stagaires. De termijn van de huidige stagair loopt binnenkort af, daarom is FYEG op zoek naar een nieuwe stagair(e). FYEG beschikt jammergenoeg niet over genoeg middelen om deze stagair te betalen, maar betaalt wel vervoerskosten en middagmalen terug. Bovendien krijgt de stagair de kans om in het Europees Parlement te werken. Omdat één van de voorwaarden om als stagair(e) bij FYEG aan de slag te kunnen gaan is dat je Engels moet kunnen spreken en begrijpen, publiceer ik de oproep voor kandidaten in het Engels. Op de foto zie je hoe 3 FYEG-leden begin dit jaar op de Turkse televisie kwamen.

Are you young, green and active? Have to do an internship for your Bachelor or Master? Between study and work and don't want to sit at home waiting for a job? Wanting to get work experience to have a better change for your dream job? Interested in politics and youth issues? Interested in the European Institutions?

Any of the above? Then FYEG is what you are looking for and you are what FYEG is looking for!

FYEG, the Federation of Young European Greens, is an NGO that aims to bring together young green political activists from all over Europe to encourage both mutual understanding and mutual action to promote a greener Europe. We are a young and very internationally orientated organisation and work with/in countries all over Europe. Our Brussels head office is located inside the European Parliament. We can open the doors of the EU institutions for you!

We are currently looking for a highly motivated intern to assist the Office Coordinator in our head quarters in Brussels. You should be available from the beginning of March until the end of June. It is a full-time position, but arrangements can be made to include time for your own study/thesis.

Job content:

About half of the job will consist of assisting the Office Coordinator in running the organisation. The other half will be filled with working on the organization of study sessions, seminars, campaigns or anything else that you are interested in.

We always discuss thoroughly with our interns how they and we get most out of their time within FYEG. Your personal or educational needs and wishes are the basis of our co-operation.

Profile candidate:

• A good knowledge of the English language (written and oral) is necessary.
• Other European languages would be a plus.
• Experience within NGO’s is preferred but not absolutely necessary.

• Younger than 30 year.
• Good writing and computer skills.
• Able to work independently

Terms:

The period is from the beginning of March to the end of June (4 months), unless you would like to work longer.

Full-time, but with room (approx. 25%) for your own study/thesis.
The position is unpaid, as we have a very strict budget.
FYEG will only reimburse local travel cost and lunch costs from the European Parliament restaurant.
