  • Organising and managing site visits at CERN to recommend improvements to environmental practices, documented through official reports or notes.
  • Monitoring and ensuring environmental protection during engineering and civil works.
  • Raising environmental awareness among all stakeholders.
  • Contributing to CERN's environmental monitoring programme, including on-site investigations and follow-up on pollution incidents, in support of continuous improvement in environmental protection.
  • Knowledge of French or Swiss Environmental regulations, more specifically on soil protection, biodiversity or hazardous substances is an asset.
  • Ability to conduct environmental assessments and implement preventive measures is an asset.
  • Willingness to undertake site visits.
  • Proficiency in drafting and writing official documents.
  • Fluent in French, with the ability to prepare technical specifications and/or scientific reports, as well as deliver oral presentations in French or, if preferred, English.
  • By the application deadline, you have a maximum of two years of professional experience since graduation in environmental engineering (or a related field) and your highest educational qualification is either a Bachelor's or Master's degree.
  • You have never had a CERN fellow or graduate contract before.
  • Applicants without a University degree are not eligible.
  • Applicants with a PhD are not eligible.

About us

At CERN, the European Organization for Nuclear Research, physicists and engineers are probing the fundamental structure of the universe. Using the world's largest and most complex scientific instruments, they study the basic constituents of matter - fundamental particles that are made to collide together at close to the speed of light. The process gives physicists clues about how particles interact and provides insights into the fundamental laws of nature. Find out more on http://home.cern.

Diversity has been an integral part of CERN's mission since its foundation and is an established value of the Organization. Employing a diverse workforce is central to our success.
