In 1973 he joined UN Trade and Development (UNCTAD) in Geneva.

During his period of work in international institutions, he cooperated with Polish intelligence (Ministry of Public Security, Department I MSW), something he admitted in the later 1990s.[1] Given his positions, he would also have been of interest for Western agencies.

After leaving the government, he then became the president's economic advisor. In 1993, he became the leader of the party’s Non-Party Reform Support Block and became the party’s candidate for prime minister. Olechowski became a member of the government of Waldemar Pawlak as the Minister of Foreign Affairs, thanks to the provisions of the Constitution of 1992, which guaranteed the president influence on the staff of the so-called presidential ministries (including the Ministry of Foreign Affairs).
