Applications are now open for two volunteers to be directly appointed to Team Ireland for the duration of the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris.
Team Ireland will compete at the games from July 26 to August 11, 2024, including a range of cycling events on the road and on the track.
Successful volunteer applicants will be based with Team Ireland at the Games and provide athletes and staff with administrative, linguistic and operational support during the Games, as well as a number of occasions in the lead into the Games.
The deadline to be considered for the role of a Team Ireland specific assistant (NOC Assistant) is the 16th of January 2023, with interviews taking place on the week commencing 23rd January 2023.

“This is ideally suited to individuals who have a good understanding of sport and the athlete needs, who have an element of fluency in French, organised, personable, work well under pressure, and who are interested in exploring an opportunity to work in a fast-moving sport environment.”
