EGEC is looking for a young, eager and organised Policy Intern to join our small team in Brussels.

Geothermal is one of the fastest-growing renewable energy solutions. You’ll be focused on writing position papers and briefing notes; advocacy activities; participate in events and meetings; and support EU-funded research.
