ECDC wishes to set up a list of candidates interested in a work opportunity as Seconded National Expert (SNE).

General description of the Centre:

The mission of the Centre is to identify, assess and communicate current and emerging threats to human health from communicable diseases. Within this broad mission statement, the main technical tasks of the Centre fall into the following four categories:

a. Scientific opinions, bringing together technical expertise in specific fields through its various EU-wide networks and via ad hoc scientific panels;

b. Technical assistance and communication about its activities and results, and disseminating information tailored to meet the needs of its different audiences;

c. Epidemiological surveillance and networking of laboratories, i.e. the development of epidemiological surveillance at European level and the maintenance of networks of reference laboratories;

d. Early Warning and Response, based on ‘round the clock’ availability of specialists in communicable diseases.

The Centre is located in Stockholm, Sweden.

The legal base for the Centre is Regulation (EC) No 851/2004 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 21 April 2004 establishing a European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control.
