About Square41
The home for international careers
Square41 is a careers platform for professionals working across international affairs, development cooperation, NGOs, public policy, diplomacy, EU institutions, the UN system, foundations, and multilateral organisations.
Our mission
Finding a role in the international sector is not like searching for any other job. Opportunities are scattered across dozens of institutional websites, often buried or poorly indexed. Square41 exists to bring them together in one place — clearly presented, consistently filtered, and easy to act on.
From Schuman Square to DG INTPA's L41 building, Square41 was born from firsthand experience of both the European affairs ecosystem and the often challenging search for opportunities within it.
Our goal is simple: help connect talent with meaningful opportunities across Europe and beyond.
Today, Square41 focuses on carefully curated jobs from organisations working in international development, humanitarian action, public affairs, sustainability, governance, and global cooperation.
As the community grows, Square41 aims to become more than a job board: a place where people, organisations, and ideas across the international sector can connect and gain visibility.
Whether you are starting your career, looking for your next challenge, or expanding your professional network, Square41 helps you stay connected to the opportunities that matter.
