Labour market shocks and megatrends, such as ageing, globalisation, and the green and digital transitions have significant implications for labour market and the role of employment services. Employment services need to serve more diverse clients, identify and anticipate changes in skill needs, enhance jobseekers’ employability, prevent unemployment and support vulnerable groups. At the same time, tight budgets call for ever more effective and efficient use of resources and stronger accountability framework.

The intern will play a key role in supporting research on the career and employment services landscape and engagements with companies to gather feedback and ideas on refreshing these services to serve a more diverse workforce and to address existing market failures.

The scope may evolve with developments, to ensure meaningful and impactful work.
