**Your team**
- You will be part of the Oversight Division in the Directorate General Market Infrastructure and Payments. All staff in the Directorate General actively contribute to ensuring that Europe’s financial markets can rely on safe and efficient market infrastructures, while embracing innovation and contributing to further European integration. We have three main responsibilities: we provide infrastructure for payment and securities settlement under the TARGET Services brand; we work with the financial sector to promote innovation and the harmonisation of business practices across Europe; and we oversee market infrastructures and payments.

The Oversight Division has around 40 members of staff and is responsible for the oversight of payment systems, instruments, schemes and arrangements, securities settlement infrastructures (including TARGET2-Securities), and central counterparties. In addition, the Division is responsible for maintaining and implementing the Eurosystem’s cyber resilience strategy for pan-European market infrastructures, which includes a broad range of state-of-the-art tools.

**Your role**
- As a trainee you will work closely with ECB experts and will:

- support analytical and/or policy-related projects looking at market infrastructures, their efficiency and interconnectedness, and any systemic risk;
- participate in monitoring the compliance of payment systems, instruments, schemes and arrangements, as well as securities settlement infrastructures, with oversight standards and applicable regulations;
- help to shape EU regulatory framework in the fields of payments and securities;
- contribute to cyber resilience initiatives and tools under the Euro Cyber Resilience Board for pan-European Financial Infrastructures (ECRB), the TIBER-EU framework and the overall Eurosystem cyber resilience strategy for financial market infrastructures;
- support the preparation of briefings, memos, papers and reports on analytical projects and policy topics;
- help to prepare presentations to European working groups and committees, the ECB’s decision-making bodies and financial market infrastructure providers;
- support the collection, analysis and sharing of data in your area of responsibility and the development of new approaches, proposing creative ways to address technical questions.

We are recruiting four trainees who will be working in different teams. All four positions offer excellent opportunities to learn about financial market infrastructures and to contribute to the Eurosystem’s oversight tasks in this field.

Depending on the team to which you are allocated, you will primarily contribute to ensuring the safety and efficiency of i) systemically important payment systems; ii) payment instruments, schemes and arrangements; or iii) securities settlement infrastructures; or you will mainly contribute to promoting the cyber resilience of financial market infrastructures.

You will be part of a multicultural team that strives for continuous innovation to make a positive impact on the lives of European citizens.

**Qualifications, experience and skills**
- Essential:

- a bachelor’s degree or higher in economics, business administration, computer science, auditing, law or a similar field;
- a good knowledge of the MS Office package;
- an advanced (C1) command of English and an intermediate (B1) command of at least one other official language of the EU, according to the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages.

Desired:

- a master’s degree in economics, business administration, computer science, auditing, law (with a specialisation in the area of financial markets) or a similar field;
- a basic knowledge of payment instruments, payment systems, securities settlement infrastructures, other financial market infrastructures or post-trade processing, or basic cyber resilience concepts;
- experience in drafting reports, briefings or analytical notes in English;
- good presentation skills;
- a general awareness of EU regulatory processes and frameworks relevant to financial market infrastructures (e.g. the ECB Regulation on oversight requirements for systemically important payment systems, the Eurosystem oversight framework for electronic payments (PISA), the EU Payment Services Directive, EU post-trading regulations and the CPMI-IOSCO Principles for Financial Market Infrastructures);
- a working knowledge of data management tools (e.g. MS Excel), statistical packages or programming languages (e.g. Stata, R, MATLAB, VBA, or Python) and/or data visualisation software (e.g. Tableau).
