JOB DESCRIPTION

WE ARE

Directorate COMP.J of the DG Competition is entrusted with the enforcement of the Digital Markets Act (DMA) and Articles 101 and 102 TFEU in relation to digital platforms. The DMA is one of the first regulatory tools to regulate comprehensively the gatekeeper power of the largest digital platforms. It aims to make the markets in the digital sector fairer and more contestable. The DMA therefore complements the EU competition rules that continue to apply to this sector and will continue to be enforced by DG Competition.

Directorate COMP.J cooperates closely with Directorate COMP.C, responsible for the enforcement of EU competition rules in the sectors of electronic communications, media and the information technology industry, and with DG Communications Networks, Content and Technology (DG CONNECT). Furthermore, it cooperates with other Commission Services on policy initiatives in relation to digital platforms.

Unit COMP.J.l Digital Platforms I works with the other units in the directorate, namely units COMP.J.2 and C0MP.J.3 in a flexible network. The network allows for task-oriented resource allocation in implementing and enforcing the Digital Markets Act and the antitrust rules and for agility in responding to new challenges in the sector.

WE PROPOSE

Unit J-l of DG Competition is offering one challenging and interesting position as a secretary (case and secretarial assistance) within a friendly, motivating and efficient environment. The main task is to provide, in close cooperation with the other secretaries, administrative, case and logistic support to the managers and case handlers of the Directorate, including preparing all the necessary administrative documents/steps throughout the relevant case-handling procedures.

WE LOOK FOR

We are looking for a motivated and dynamic colleague who enjoys teamwork. The post requires reliability and accuracy, service culture, discretion and good organisational skills. The candidate should demonstrate a sense of initiative and willingness to assume responsibilities, as well as the ability to work both as a member of a team and independently. The candidate should have good knowledge of the standard IT tools (e.g. Word, Outlook, PowerPoint, Excel) and ideally already be familiar with specific IT tools used in the Commission (e.g. MIPS, SYSPER, ARES). A good command of English is essential. The knowledge of any other language, as well as familiarity with Commission procedures and the working methods of DG COMP would be an additional advantage.
