ECHA wishes to establish a reserve list of senior managers that may be called to lead one of its operational or corporate Directorates. Initially, this list will serve to fill a current vacancy
as Director of one of our operational Directorates. If you are an individual with management and leadership experience in the private or public sector, in a national, EU or international
organisation and are interested in joining a dynamic, expanding organisation, then this job could be for you.

ECHA launched its new organisational structure in March 2026 and this introduced operational directorates addressing delivery of our chemicals mandate; corporate services,
administration and IT. We also established a new directorate on data services to further enhance our data capabilities and deliverables in line with strategic goals and technological advances. The person appointed as a Director will be initially assigned to one of ECHA’s operational Directorates, however, the role may change as business and strategic requirements evolve.

ECHA welcomes job applications from qualified and dynamic professionals all over the European Union and the European Economic Area. We are committed to diversity and inclusion, aiming to secure equal opportunities at every step of the career, including selections and recruitment.
