Working in Brussels

Being a first world city, the business environment in Brussels is fast-paced, demanding and aggressive. Many of the English speaking Companies are either connected with the European Union or with NATO and jobs with these institutions are extremely competitive. It could be next to impossible to find a job outside the city of Brussels without speaking Flemish.

Doing business in Brussels if fairly laid-back as everyone speaks English, the city is small and compact enough to get around easily and everyone loves a business lunch meeting. Belgians are not averse to a midday glass of wine or two.

You are required to have a work visa commencing employment. This can be applied for at the Belgian consulate in your country. EU Nationals can work freely in Brussels.
