ICC Junior Professional Officer Programme
A Junior Professional Officer (JPO) is a young professional sponsored by their respective government for an assignment of one or more years. Through the assignment, the JPO gains a unique personal and cultural experience and the opportunity to acquire hands-on experience in international cooperation activities under the close direction/supervision of senior Court officials.
The goal of the JPO Programme is to assist in the execution of the mandate of the International Criminal Court (ICC) by providing young graduates, having limited professional experience, with the opportunity to gain knowledge by means of a structured learning experience through temporary service with the ICC.
The programme will give participants the opportunity to work in the Court’s stimulating multicultural environment on projects related to their expertise and interests. JPOs will be able to strengthen their expertise at a national or international level with unrivalled experience in the implementation of international criminal justice offered by the Court’s unique environment. In particular, the programme will enable them to develop a deeper understanding of how the Court operates and the challenges it faces. In return, the Court is looking for individuals with intellectual rigour, insight into national practice, limited relevant experience, attention to detail, commitment, honesty, integrity, motivation, creativity and team spirit.
