Your responsibilities will include:

• Coordinating project activities and supporting international project partners

• Around 1–3 years of professional experience in a project coordination or project management role
• Excellent communication skills in English, both written and spoken
• Strong organisational, analytical and problem-solving abilities
• A proactive, flexible and collaborative approach
• Experience with EU-funded projects, healthcare, research or public policy is an advantage, but not essential.

We offer a varied and rewarding role within an international organisation, where you will contribute to the education and professional development of healthcare professionals across Europe. You will join a supportive and collaborative team environment that encourages personal growth, initiative and ownership, while providing opportunities to develop your skills through a wide range of educational projects and international events. 

In addition, we offer:

• A gross monthly salary between €3,000 and €5,200, depending on experience.
