FIPRA is looking for a mid-level Account Manager to join its Competition & Antitrust Practice.

Knowledge and experience of other EU policy areas would therefore be a plus.

You will report to, and be guided by, the Head of the Business Unit, while also liaising with other members of our team, including our range of experienced Special Advisors as well as our full-time personnel.

Role and responsibilities

  • Play a key role in managing client relationships and delivering high quality services in-line with client needs and expectations

  • Contribute to pitches and presentations for new business development; participate in conferences and other events on behalf of FIPRA
  • Provide strategic and logistical support for multi-stakeholder initiatives to address specific client issues and deliver successful outcomes.

Skills and experience

  • At least 5 years’ relevant experience from an EU institution, public affairs consultancy, law firm, in-house public affairs team or NGO
  • Strong interest in and good understanding of EU competition policy essential, with an awareness of current debates around future policy challenges
  • Excellent organisational and project management skills to drive client agendas and initiatives with proven proactivity and flexibility
  • Excellent analytical skills and attention to detail; ability to deliver high-quality work while multi-tasking and managing competing deadlines
  • Ability to work autonomously where needed, while also supporting, managing and developing other team members
  • Good verbal communication, writing and presentation skills; adept networker with strong contacts in the EU bubble.

Fluency in English both written and conversational is a requirement, but FIPRA employs persons of all nationalities and other European language skills are a bonus, as are existing ICT and digital skills.
