Deadline: Open Until Filled
We are announcing new job openings at Visegrad Insight, Res Publica Foundation, to enable our pan-European expansion. We are hiring:
Visegrad Insight is the leading Central European platform of debate and analysis that generates future policy directions for Europe and transatlantic partners. It was established in 2012 by the Res Publica Foundation — an independent think tank in Warsaw Res Publica Foundation. Funded independently through a subscription service, several multi-year grants from donors, multiple ad-hoc grants, donations, and corporate sponsorship, we are expanding our operations in Europe.
In particular, we are set to:
- Expand media cooperation in CEE to foster voices on democratic security,
- Build a thriving community around Res Publica Nowa (Polish), Visegrad Insight & New Europe 100,
- Carry out several EU-policy strategic foresight projects (see key examples from 2022, 2021, 2020, 2019), and
- Produce new foresight reports that will focus business and public sector attention.
Starting as of January 2023, we are hiring new team members.
Deputy Managing Editor
Who are we looking for?
A person who loves editorial flow and strategies. Punctual and organised, with a considerable experience in journalism and teamwork. Ideally English language native speaker but not a must. A person that cares as much about commas as language nuances and diversity of transnational contexts. Friendly with a digital toolbox (Google Workspace environment, Slack awareness) and Twitter flow savvy. A tasteful eye for illustrative material and some experience with Canva would be great.
What is the job like?
Following the managing editor lead, you will help manage the editorial process, including publications at Visegrad Insight and contacts with authors, fellows, and partner media in CEE. This will also involve close editorial work, influencing the titles and headings, social media communication and the creative art process. We expect you to work with us from our Warsaw office and focus instead on scheduling rather than reacting to emergencies. And your first task will be to manage the production of our upcoming podcast episodes.
Why work with us?
We are a unique media platform enjoying an excellent reputation internationally for our state-of-the-art analysis and reporting on CEE democratic security affairs. Our team in Warsaw is small and friendly rather than a corporate environment. Yet, despite running a not-for-profit business, we tend to have a more professional approach than most NGOs. We offer stable employment with prospects of growth and raise starting at 8,000 PLN per month.

Community Manager
Who are we looking for?
An engaged and outgoing social junkie with great talents at organising events, parties and discussions, but who would not want a career in the wedding industry. A person who likes to see engaged digital communities grow and pays attention to privacy, diplomacy and political sensitivities. Efficiently manages databases through spreadsheets or CRM systems. Friendly with a digital toolbox (Google Workspaceenvironment, Slack awareness) and social media flow savvy. A tasteful eye for illustrative material and some experience with Canva are essential.
What is the job like?
You will structure and expand our databases and organise weekly online and offline events. You will be in touch with our extensive pool of international fellows, authors and guest speakers and pay attention to our regular community, including high-level diplomats, public officials, business leaders, civil society leaders and journalists. As our key audiences are also our subscribers, we expect you to work towards expanding the pool of trust and bringing in more people from the CEE region, the EU, and the US.
Why work with us?
We are fun. Our events and communities are among Europe’s most intellectually vibrant and stimulating. We aim to engage the top 100 of every industry in any country that we focus on. It is an adventure and hard work requiring a meticulous approach to planning and databases, so we offer a performance-based remuneration starting at 6,000 PLN per month.

Project Assistant
Who are we looking for?
A professional administrator, to be. A responsible, proactive and well-organised person who wants to develop as a grant and projects manager. Someone with some experience in project and grant management work who wants to pursue a career within a Polish NGO with unique international experience and a focus on democratic security. A team player who wants to see the organisation’s success as her or his contribution to a better, more democratic and secure Poland and Central Europe. Knows spreadsheets or CRM systems. Friendly with a digital toolbox (Google Workspace environment, Slack awareness).
What is the job like?
It is a regular daily effort that will engage you in various project management support – from application processing to final reporting, organisation of trips and accommodation, contacting partners and participants of projects, preparing schedules and guidelines and taking minutes from meetings. In time we will have you engaged in project planning and writing of grant applications. And ideally, it will have your full and undivided attention.
Why work with us?
Because we are good at this! Come, learn and grow with one of the best internationally-focused Polish NGOs on the market. And we offer 5,000 PLN per month for a start.

Business Development Manager
Who are we looking for?
A success-driven professional who believes in implementing business strategies in a mission-driven not-for-profit organisation is the next thing she or he wants to do to make a difference. Challenges to democratic security are equally important for the private sector. Therefore we are looking for someone who understands the power of media, civil society and business alliances in Poland and Central Europe. Efficiently manages databases through spreadsheets or CRM systems. Friendly with a digital toolbox (Google Workspace environment, Slack awareness)
What is the job like?
We want you to focus on three key areas:
- Developing New Europe 100 list beyond its current format, to begin with, one announcement and a yearly event,
- New corporate subscribers acquisition and product development,
- Marketing foresight reports by Visegrad Insight and Res Publica Nowa.
Why work with us?
Because we work with the best! We have been working closely with several companies like Google, META, GE, P&G, Orange, ERSTE and the Financial Times to name a few of those we have been partnering with. There are more among our corporate subscribers. Our publicity in international and CEE media is vast. We have been earning trust for years showing that we are aware and adaptive to the corporate culture without compromising our core mission.
We have an average Warsaw salary for a start, but why don’t you suggest your business plan putting, adjusting your remuneration accordingly for our review?
