🇫🇷 France · Government Jobs

Public-sector and civil-service hiring in France — the official government job portal.

France's public-service jobs (across the state, local and hospital branches) are listed on the official Choisir le service public platform; many permanent posts are filled by competitive examination (concours). EU/EEA nationality is generally required to become a tenured civil servant (fonctionnaire), except "sovereignty" posts (police, army, justice, diplomacy) reserved for French nationals; non-EU nationals can often be hired as contractuels.
