As such, the Agency has a key role in helping Europe to develop sustainably. The successful applicant will have to demonstrate the ability and leadership necessary to ensure the Agency fulfils its strategic role. The Agency is supported by an environmental information and observation network with components in the EU, Liechtenstein, Iceland and Norway.

The appointment will be at A.2 level, for a 5-year term, renewable.
Required qualifications:Nationality: one of the member countries of the Agency, including those that are currently in the process of ratification of membership, provided ratification has taken place by the time the Agency Management Board appoints the chosen applicant (this applies to Poland and Turkey). Applicants who responded to the last call for applications (published on 20 July 2001 in the Official Journal of the EU) are reminded that this procedure has been closed. If they are still interested in this position they MUST submit a new application within the stated deadline and include all relevant documentation. In order for any application to be considered valid, interested persons are requested to send a letter of motivation, a completed application form and a free format CV of maximum 3 pages to the address below, by registered post, on 26 July 2002 (date of postmark) at the latest.
