Careers at OIMAP

The Organization is an intergovernmental employer. Its staff are recruited on the basis of their skills, with a concern for geographical balance and fair representation of women and men. They work in French, English or Spanish, the official languages.

Staff are subject to the staff regulations adopted by the Executive Council. These set out rights, duties, remuneration and means of redress.

Jobs are spread across the nine directorates of the Secretariat. In Certification, applications are examined. In Protection, alerts are analysed and operations coordinated. At the Academy, training courses are designed.

Other teams work on law, market studies, relations with Member States, events, administration and information systems.

Candidates must adhere to the Organization's values: integrity, scientific independence, cooperation, transparency and respect for communities of origin. The code of conduct applies from the first day in post.

Each staff member undertakes to declare any interests and to refuse any benefit that could impair their independence.

Staff benefit from a leave scheme, health coverage and a partial remote-working arrangement depending on the role. Regular training is offered, notably at the OIMAP Academy.

Regional offices apply the same principles, adapted to local labour law where the law requires it.

The Organization ensures equal opportunity. Vacancies are written in neutral terms, selection panels are mixed and candidates with disabilities may request adjustments for tests and interviews.

An equality officer supports staff and handles any situation of discrimination or harassment in confidence.
