The Trump administration’s policies continue to impact U.S. foreign aid and have created ripples that extend beyond Washington, D.C. The global development landscape is shifting, and for professionals in the field, there is also a shift in employment opportunities. In Europe, there have been moves of budgetary cuts and shifts of development funding, even before U.S. President Donald Trump’s reelection. Despite these, some Europe-based organizations are still creating new avenues for professionals dedicated to global impact.
Notable United Nations agencies and multilateral development banks, or MDBs with headquarters in Europe, such as UNOPS and the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development, are currently listing a variety of job openings. UNICEF also has several exciting consultancy roles based within its divisions in Geneva, Switzerland.
Leading NGOs, such as Médecins Sans Frontières and the public research center London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, also have several opportunities available.
