The Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) is an international organisation comprised of 38 member countries, that works to build better policies for better lives. Our mission is to promote policies that will improve the economic and social well-being of people around the world. Together with governments, policy makers and citizens, we work on establishing evidence-based international standards, and finding solutions to a range of social, economic and environmental challenges. From improving economic performance and creating jobs to fostering strong education and fighting international tax evasion, we provide a unique forum and knowledge hub for data and analysis, exchange of experiences, best-practice sharing, and advice on public policies and international standard-setting.
The International Energy Agency (IEA) is an intergovernmental organisation with 32 member countries committed to advancing security of energy supply, economic growth and environmental sustainability through energy policy co-operation. The IEA operates as an autonomous body within the framework of the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development. Both the OECD and the IEA seek opportunities to work with an increasing number of non-member countries of growing importance to the world economy. The Agency aims to foster the contribution of the energy sector to economic development and environmental sustainability.
The IEA Headquarters are in Paris and have an approximate office space of 7,200m2, including some conference facilities. The IEA also has a Regional Cooperation Center in Singapore. The Conferences, Buildings and Security unit (CBS) manages the IEA buildings and conference facilities as well as ensures security, health, and safety. The Agency organises some 400 events per year in different formats (i.e., physical, hybrid or fully virtual) and welcomes some 8,000 delegates annually.
The IEA seeks to constitute a pool of candidates for current and upcoming needs, for operating the conference facilities and coordinating conferences, ministerial meetings, receptions, exhibitions and related events organised by directorates, Delegations and external entities, in Paris and abroad. The event co-ordinators are an integral part of a dynamic and reactive team, liaising with the Organisations high-level stakeholders and providers. The nature of the work is fast paced and energetic, and might require selected candidates to be called upon to work outside regular office hours, and occasionally on weekends or public holidays.
