Former Austrian Chancellor Sebastian Kurz (35) is said to have accepted a job in the USA.
The Austrian media reported on Saturday.
He is said to have already signed a contract in the private sector, reported the daily newspaper Austria.
According to information from the Kronen-Zeitung, it should be a manager job in Silicon Valley.
The region south of San Francisco is home to numerous large high-tech, IT, and Internet companies.
Greetings in English
According to the Kronen-Zeitung, he will take up the post “in a global company in Silicon Valley” at the beginning of February.
The ex-chancellor will lead a "classic managerial life between San Francisco, Vienna, Germany and Switzerland".
The new task should be made public soon.
In addition, he will take on supervisory board mandates.
Kurz did not comment.
On the short message service Twitter he wrote his Christmas greetings - rather unusual - in English: "Merry #Christmas, relaxing holidays and a happy New Year to you all!" ! "
Kurz resigned as Federal Chancellor in October after allegations of corruption.
He and some of his closest political comrades are said to have used taxpayers' money to commission polls to pave the way for the Chancellery.
Kurz denies all allegations.
He initially remained head of the conservative ÖVP and parliamentary group leader, but at the beginning of December he abruptly announced his resignation from all offices.
Before that, he and his girlfriend had become parents.
The birth of his son changed his perspective, he said, and precluded a return to politics.
Kurz was in the spotlight for ten years, as State Secretary, Foreign Minister and finally Chancellor.
According to the Kronen-Zeitung, he wants to marry his girlfriend in the summer.
