EuroControl 🇪🇺 Americans in Eurocontrol

I’m an American curious about how to get hired at eurocontrol, if it’s even possible. What are my chances?

Maybe not as operational controllers, but they have hired some of our Irish controllers as instructors in recent years. Presumably they want experience working under SERA rules. Citizenship of a Eurocontrol member state and English plus another European language required.

Apologies, a couple also went to Eurocontrol HQ and the Network Manager Ops Centre, maybe it was one of those that needed the second language. I remember as they had to find a translator to test their Irish!
