Our current job openings at Vulcan:

Spontaneous Application, Brussels
Account Executive, Brussels

Starting as a Graduate Trainee at Vulcan Consulting was a great learning experience that gave me the premise I needed to begin a career in public affairs. From day one, I was provided with mentorship, and hands-on exposure to different aspects of the business, which helped me to develop the key skills needed in this field. The traineeship provides a great introduction to Brussels and allows you to build a strong professional network and really develop valuable professional skills. The support from my colleagues was extensive and I was constantly encouraged to push my limits and take on new challenges. This guidance helped me in my promotion to Account Executive, a role where I now have more responsibility, client interactions, and opportunities to contribute. I really value the collaborative work environment at Vulcan and continuous learning opportunities that allow me to develop both professionally and personally.​

Niamh Murphy

Senior Account Executive, Brussels

My time as a Graduate Trainee at Vulcan Consulting has been a great introduction to public affairs. The variety of client work and close interaction with senior colleagues has helped me build a well-rounded understanding of how public affairs works in practice and feel meaningfully involved from the outset. The role offers exposure to the full range of public affairs work, from policy monitoring and briefing, to building relationships across politics, government, and industry. What has stood out most is the openness of the team. There is a real willingness to listen to ideas and encourage contribution, regardless of your role or level. That culture has definitely made me feel trusted and valued and has created an environment where everyone is encouraged to take initiative and be part of shaping the business.
