In your role as a legal trainee, you will be part of the dynamic and service-oriented Library Services team, made up of seven members of staff responsible for:

- develop topic-based alerts and newsletters with filtered content to meet the business and research needs of the ECB's lawyers;
- help promote and raise awareness of available resources and services;
- support the adoption of new tools and processes as part of the Library's digital transformation.


You will be working closely with the law librarian and with lawyers across the ECB, especially in the Legal Knowledge Management team.

You are curious and eager to learn, and want to further develop your ability to analyse complex information.
