Careers

A career at the European Medicines Agency (EMA) offers candidates interesting and challenging work that brings value to European citizens and a diverse and stimulating working environment, while enjoying attractive benefits and a healthy work-life balance.

In addition, EMA operates a traineeship programme for recent graduates and offers the opportunity for staff from other European public-sector bodies to work at EMA for short periods through its national expert on secondment programme.

EMA sometimes also uses recruiting agencies for the short-term placement of interim staff.
