Policy Officer

European Tech Alliance (EUTA) · Based in Brussels · Full time · Start, no later than January 2027

The European Tech Alliance brings together around 40 of Europe’s leading tech companies, all born and built in Europe. In Brussels, we speak for them on the EU rules that shape how they grow. The next few years will shape how Europe regulates data, from the Digital Omnibus to the GDPR review.

We are looking for a Policy Officer to own the privacy and data portfolio, among other files. You’ll join a small team where everyone’s work is visible and counts.

What you will do

• Lead EUTA’s work on privacy and data, starting with the Digital Omnibus and the Digital Fitness Check
• Turn input from our members into clear positions, papers and amendments
• Meet officials at the Commission, Parliament, Council and Permanent Representations, and build relationships that last
• Help run campaigns, from the storyline to the events and the follow up
• Work closely with the policy leads at our member companies.
• Share the load with the rest of the team when priorities shift, which they will

What you bring

• Around 5 to 7 years in EU public affairs, whether at an association, a consultancy, a company or an institution
• Experience running an EU policy campaign from start to finish
• A network in the EU institutions you can use from day one
• A real interest in tech, ideally European tech, and some knowledge of privacy, data or fintech rules
• Clear, persuasive writing in English. French or German is a plus.
• The ability to work well in a small team, pick things up quickly and learn from the people around you

What we offer

• Your own portfolio, worked on with real autonomy, working closely with and under the overall direction of the Secretary General
• Direct contact with senior policymakers and with the policy teams of Europe’s leading tech companies, as part of EUTA’s coordinated advocacy
• A small, friendly team where your ideas get heard
• A competitive salary in line with your experience
• The role is based in our Brussels office, with some travel in Europe
