WE ARE

The Joint Research Centre (JRC) provides independent, evidence-based knowledge and science, supporting EU policies to positively impact society.

The mission of Directorate B is to provide top-class analysis and data to support the EU’s policy initiatives aimed at ensuring that today’s and tomorrow’s Europeans enjoy fair and sustainable prosperity, taking a systemic view of the relationships between our economic activities, the environmental impacts of human activities and the societal needs of our citizens. Directorate B develops macroeconomic analysis and supports the policy making with its unique analytical and modelling tools and boosts EU innovation driven competitiveness in the global context, turning territorial diversity as well as urban-rural interactions into a value. We drive European markets, industry and services towards environmental sustainability, including construction and the built environment.

The Fiscal Policy Analysis Unit provides modelling support and research in the area of taxation and social benefits. Its aim is to contribute to evidence-based fiscal policies that enable the attainment of the social, economic and environmental objectives of the EU. To fulfil its mission, the Unit maintains, updates and develops state-of-the art tools for the analyses of fiscal policies of the EU and its Member States, and, using those analytical tools, provides evidence for policy making in the area of taxation and social protection in the EU, in alignment with the European Commission priorities.

Since the 1st January 2021 the Unit is in charge of the maintenance and update of the EUROMOD model. The model is extensively used by the European Commission services in order to assess EU Member States´ policy reforms as well as to support EU policy proposals. Further information about the unit’s activities can be found via this link: Fiscal Policy Analysis – European Commission.

We offer:

• High-quality working conditions in a dynamic environment;
• 
  
• Working in a multidisciplinary and multicultural team;
• 
  
• A unique opportunity to support EU policies and contribute to the JRC’s scientific excellence, working in close cooperation with policy makers, academics and other leading stakeholders, including participation in (international) academic conferences and workshops.

WE PROPOSE

The new colleague will contribute to the maintenance, update and documentation of the EUROMOD model (EUROMOD - Tax-benefit microsimulation model for the European Union) in close collaboration with EUROMOD national teams and with DG ESTAT. Related tasks include contributing to the timely public release of the model, the preparation of annual EUROMOD country reports and the organisation and participation in EUROMOD conferences and EUROMOD project meetings. The new colleague will also contribute to a new project aimed at producing tax-benefit indicators for EU Member States based on the Hypothetical Household Tool (HHoT) of the EUROMOD model. This involves support to methodological developments, and validation of policies and indicators, in collaboration with national experts and stakeholders.

The new colleague will furthermore provide modelling support for the analysis of tax-benefit reforms (i.e. personal income taxes, labour market policies, VAT and excises, green taxes, child benefits, minimum income, etc.) in the EU, in particular in the context of the European Semester for economic and fiscal policy coordination as well as EU policy initiatives and monitoring frameworks with Member States. He/she will also provide training/technical support to Member States for the development of microsimulation-based analytical capacity in the area of tax-benefit systems.

The new colleague is expected to contribute to the scientific activities of the unit, through publications in JRC working papers, academic journals and European Commission reports and by participating in (and contributing to the organisation of) workshops and research conferences.
