ZOE Institute for Future-fit Economies
Industrial Policy Trainee (m/f/d)
6-months traineeship Berlin/Brussels/Cologne/remote starting as soon as possible 30-38 hours per week
Who we are
ZOE, the Institute for Future-Fit Economies, is an independent think & do tank active in Germany and in Brussels. We are dedicated to policy-oriented research and evidence-driven advocacy for a future-fit economy. At the interface of politics, research, and civil society in the EU, we develop impulses for an economy that enables people to live well within planetary boundaries.
We value an appreciative atmosphere, close collaboration, and willingness to learn. Further we offer:
- A motivating working environment in a small think & do tank that has become an established actor in Brussels in a short space of time
- A strategic, agile, value and purpose-oriented working style
- Flexibility of working time and place, supporting a healthy work-life-balance
The role
The trainee will support our work on EU industrial policy. In this policy area we are developing recommendations on how to successfully design and implement industrial policy at EU level for a green and just transition. This includes the ramp-up of necessary production capacities for green technologies, avoidance of profit-capture as well, whilst also fostering socio-economic cohesion in the EU.
Key responsibilities
As part of a motivated and impact-driven team you will carry out a variety of tasks, including:
- Research on transformative industrial policy in different focus areas: fiscal & monetary policy, sustainable finance, trade policy, public procurement, etc.
- Drafting content for concept notes or short policy briefs
- Creating presentations & one pagers for external meetings & events
- Supporting policy and expert engagement in bilateral & multilateral formats
- Supporting the organisation of events such as policy labs
This role suits someone that is familiar with EU policy in at least one of the above-mentioned areas.
