European Solidarity Corps: Project Manager needed for Participation Forum 2027 | Apply by November 1

SALTO Participation & Information is looking for an experienced Project Manager to lead the planning and delivery of the Participation Forum 2027 in Tallinn, Estonia. The Forum will bring together 150-200 international participants from education, youth and sport sectors to discuss the results of the participation priority and promote democratic participation in European programmes.

The successful applicant will coordinate the event from planning to delivery, including budgeting, procurement, programme development, cooperation with speakers and partners, participant engagement, on-site coordination and post-event reporting. The role will also involve working with the SALTO Participation & Information team and a steering group to develop the programme and ensure an inclusive and sustainable event.

The service agreement will run from November 2026 to December 2027, with an estimated workload of up to 1,200 hours (approximately 0.5 full-time equivalent). The fee is €25 per hour. The work will be carried out mainly remotely, with on-site periods required in Tallinn.

Applicants should have experience managing at least three large-scale international events for 150 or more participants, including budget management and procurement. Knowledge of democratic participation, Erasmus+ and the European Solidarity Corps (ESC), as well as experience with inclusive and sustainable event planning, is required. Candidates should have strong stakeholder communication and coordination skills, familiarity with formal and non-formal education, and full professional fluency in English. Working knowledge of Estonian is an advantage.

This call is organised by SALTO Participation & Information (SALTO PI), a European Resource Centre hosted by the Estonian Erasmus+ and European Solidarity Corps Agency, operating within the Education and Youth Board of Estonia (HARNO).

The deadline for applications is 1 November 2026.
