The UK wants international organisations to have strong leadership structures that are able to shape effective and efficient organisations. We support merit-based recruitment to ensure that positions are filled by talented individuals. We want to see strong British candidates applying for, and taking up key roles within these organisations, to join the many already working there.

In this document you can find more information about the opportunities available in international organisations and how to apply. You can also find details of the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office’s Multilateral Jobs initiative, which helps suitable candidates find upcoming international opportunities.
