After the posting he worked at the Department of Central and Southern Europe and, as director, at the Department of Western Europe. Afterwards, he was deputy director of the Department of Europe responsible for cooperation with Western European countries, and established the International Visegrad Fund.[3]

Following his work as deputy ambassador to Austria (2002–2007), he was deputy director of the Department of Europe, then head of the Department of Central and Southern Europe. From 2010 to 2014 Hałaciński served as ambassador to the Kingdom of Sweden. Between 2015 and 2016 he was the Minister's Plenipotentiary for the Preparation of the 2016 NATO Summit. From April 2017 he headed the Security Policy Department.
