Join the Hungarian EOM Team
We are looking for 10 coordinators for the 2022 Hungarian parliamentary election!
If you are interested in gaining new competencies and supporting international
dialogue and democracy, then going our team.
The EOM Committee is in charge of one of Silba's most important activities: our election observation missions (EOMs). We research and plan a biyearly schedule of all countries that Silba aims to host election observation missions in.
The EOM department does all the groundwork, conducting the necessary research,
recruiting observers, and managing the ongoing missions.
Roles of the Team
Head Coordinator
The Head Coordinator has the general overview of the EOM, establishes contact with speakers and cooperates with local partner organizations, and is responsible for the general contact with the participants. Alongside that, the Head Coordinator is responsible for the monitoring of observer teams on Election Day and is also responsible for drafting our EOM report.
Press Coordinator
The tasks of the Press Officer are primarily to have a strategy for communication outreach for Silba before, during and after the EOM. This entails communicating with local and international media in order to get as much awareness and outreach as possible for Silba’s activities during the mission and on Election Day. It also entails keeping an active online presence for Silba. Skills and experience in communication and media are desired in this position!
Financial Coordinator
The Financial Coordinator is responsible for the financial part of the EOM, which means having a general overview of the budget, its planning and communication to the rest of the team. During the mission, the role entails making sure the mission stays on budget by keeping track of expenses, and being responsible for all transactions. Experience with accounting or a flair for numbers is sought after in this position!
Logistics Coordinator
The Logistics Coordinator is tasked with all issues related to the logistical operations of an EOM. He or she locates and leases suitable office premises, equipment, communications facilities and also identifies options for accommodation. Speaking the local language, experience with security and the country/capital are competences highly valued in this position!
There are additional ad-hoc tasks within the above positions, which in most cases will require teamwork between the different coordinators. Teamwork skills are a necessity for all positions.
The workload will be substantial in the weeks before the EOM as well as during the program, which you should be prepared for before applying. We are looking forward to receiving your application!
Feel free to contact eom@silba.dk if you have any questions regarding the positions or the tasks in relation to the EOM.
Note: Silba reserves the right to cancel the EOM in case of safety issues at any time. Silba's safety assessment is based on information from open sources and the Danish foreign ministry's travel advice.
