Through times of crisis and peace, NATO has safeguarded our freedom and security for 75 years and counting. Threats evolve every day and NATO is continuing to adapt to keep us safe. Together we will make sure our Alliance remains ready today to face the challenges of tomorrow.

We are launching an accelerator for your international career – the second cycle of our Young Professionals Programme (YPP). Through this global three-year programme, you will experience the frontline of a political and military alliance and start a journey of personal and professional development in a diverse and inclusive work environment. Together, we will enable NATO to:

• Address existing and emerging global challenges with security implications;
• Facilitate political consultation and dialogue between nations;
• Leverage innovation, science and technology to support peace and security;
• Stay ahead in cutting-edge domains such as cyber defence and aerospace;
• Support multiple operations on land, at sea and in the air around the world;
• Contribute to the global effort to combat terrorism, piracy and human trafficking; and,
• Run crisis management exercises that mobilize thousands of people and items of equipment.

Do you want to make a difference and help protect close to one billion people across 32 NATO member states, including your own? If you are ready to take on this challenge and are a national of a NATO member state, hold a Master’s degree and have at least one year of work experience, then apply for the YPP.

With you, we are stronger.

Your role

During the three years of the programme, you will be assigned to three different NATO bodies:

Year 1 - Allied Command Operations (ACO) - SHAPE - (Mons, Belgium)

This is an opportunity for you to apply your knowledge and skills in the broader area of Innovation and Emerging and Disruptive Technologies (EDTs). As you gain experience, you will be given increasing responsibilities, such as:

• Researching opportunities for innovation in EDTs by engaging with innovation stakeholders within NATO, Allied governments, academia, start-ups, venture investors, and other tech actors to better understand new trends and technologies and their impact on our political and military objectives;
• Examining the convergence between different EDTs and their potential impact;
• Researching how our adversaries and competitors may be: (a) developing and leveraging new EDTs; and (b) attempting to acquire our own EDTs through licit or illicit means;
• Supporting teams at NATO working towards a culture of innovation at NATO by embracing agile approaches to decision-making and seeking to uncover institutional barriers to the Alliance’s tech readiness;
• Establishing an understanding of the NATO Enterprise’s ways of working to be able to integrate innovative approaches for NATO stakeholders to adapt to dynamic trends;
• Supporting and facilitating the discussion, development and implementation of innovative initiatives in the form of policies, processes or technologies;
• Supporting NATO’s efforts in systematically introducing innovation in defence planning and capability development processes and activities;
• Contributing to public diplomacy efforts on NATO’s innovation activities, including by reaching communities traditionally thought of as beyond the Alliance’s reach;
• Supporting the enhancement of the Strategic Commands’ warfighting readiness through the exploitation of innovative solutions to enable warfighting functions;
• Informing the Strategic Level about military implications of technological innovation; and,
• Researching new trends within the areas of responsibilities of Innovation & EDTs.
