Our internal governance is based on the Holacracy principles: every decision is taken by the person or the \u201ccircle\u201d (team) that is responsible for it. Team members have no function or title, they are fulfilling a role, or several ones defined in our \u201cconstitution\u201d. The latter changes each time we identify a new need, making our organisation not only relatively horizontal with a co-ownership of the strategy, of its development, but also very agile. <a href=\"https:\/\/energy-cities.eu\/holacracy\/\">Learn more about Holacracy.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Location: Brussels (Belgium) or Besan\u00e7on (France) Contract: Open-ended (CDI), full-time Deadline for applications: 28th June 2026, 11:59PM CET\u00a0 Starting date: September 2026 Working time: 38 <a href=\"https:\/\/energy-cities.eu\/fr\/job\/communication-officer\/\">[\u2026]<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":93,"featured_media":0,"template":"","acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v18.8 -
