About Europol

Europol is the European Union Agency for Law Enforcement Cooperation. Our main goal is to achieve a safer Europe for the benefit of all EU citizens.

Headquartered in The Hague, the Netherlands, we assist the 27 EU Member States in their fight against serious international crime and terrorism. We also work with many non-EU partner states and international organisations.

Our position at the heart of the European security architecture allows us to offer a unique range of services and to serve as a: - support centre for law enforcement operations; - hub for information on criminal activities; - centre for law enforcement expertise.

Our operational activities focus on: - illicit drugs - trafficking in human beings - facilitated illegal immigration - cybercrime - intellectual property crime - cigarette smuggling - euro counterfeiting - VAT fraud - money laundering and asset tracing - mobile organised-crime groups - outlawing motorcycle gangs - terrorism

CAREERS AT EUROPOL We seek employees who are creative, self-reliant, energetic and ready for a challenge. Prospective candidates should be prepared to work in a dynamic and fast-paced environment that requires a high level of flexibility, and should have the ability to perform well within a team.

We offer job opportunities under contracts as Temporary Agents (TAs) and Contract Agents (CAs).

Available Temporary Agent posts may be non-restricted (open to all EU citizens) or restricted (open only to EU citizens who are members of national services competent to fight organised crime and terrorism). We also select National Experts who are seconded by Member States, to specific fields of expertise.
