The agency provides operational and technical assistance to member states under pressure, delivers training for asylum officials, maintains country-of-origin information, and monitors asylum systems. The EUAA deploys asylum support teams to EU countries facing high numbers of applications and operates in hotspot areas in Greece, Italy, Cyprus, and other frontline member states.

The agency deploys staff to operational locations across the EU, making it attractive for those seeking fieldwork experience. English is the primary working language. Malta offers a Mediterranean lifestyle with a growing international community. The agency provides both temporary agent and contract agent positions, with many roles involving travel to operational locations in member states.

How to Apply
