I am a trade and international development policy officer.
What I'm looking for
I work at the intersection of international development and trade policy, contributing to COREPER II, FAC, GAC and EUCO preparations and monitoring EU trade developments. I analyze economic effects of trade measures and prepare background materials for free trade negotiations and EU international development activities.
I previously led the International Development and Humanitarian Assistance Policy Unit, served as national focal point for the Global Gateway, and represented Hungary in international meetings and OECD processes. I have prepared statistical reports on ODA, supervised diplomats, overseen project management under the Hungary Helps Programme, and contributed to drafting legislation and strategic positions.
