I work as an auditor at the European Commission, an exciting and fulfilling role. Our main goal is to guarantee the correct and legal use of EU taxpayers’ money. I also provide oversight, making sure that systems are working properly and that rules are obeyed.

One of the most interesting parts of my job is interacting with beneficiaries of EU funding in all EU countries (and even beyond) through on-the-spot checks on their premises. Working together with colleagues from all EU Commission departments is equally fascinating as it gives us auditors an overall view of the EU Commission’s operations.
