Your main objective is to create an efficient, welcoming, and well-managed work environment for all employees and visitors. This position is perfect for a proactive, service-oriented individual who enjoys a diverse range of responsibilities and thrives on being the central point of contact.
Your key responsibilities will include:

•  Managing all office operations, including ordering supplies, handling incoming mail and calls, and maintaining a tidy and professional workspace.
•  Coordinating with external vendors and service providers, such as IT support, cleaning companies, and building management.
•  Providing administrative support to the HR manager with tasks like onboarding new hires, coordinating training, and organizing employee engagement activities.
•  Assisting the management and sales teams with secretarial tasks, including arranging business travel, scheduling meetings, and processing expense reports.
•  Organizing and executing corporate events, from team lunches and Friday afternoon drinks ("VrijMiBo") to larger company parties.
•  Acting as a backup for the financial officer by assisting with invoice administration and other financial-administrative tasks.
•  Handling various administrative duties such as drafting correspondence, translating documents, and preparing presentations.

Requirements

We are looking for a proactive and highly organized individual with a strong sense of responsibility and a can-do attitude. The ideal candidate is a natural problem-solver who can multitask effectively in a fast-paced environment. You are a clear and friendly communicator, service-minded, and enjoy being the go-to person for your colleagues, handling all requests with efficiency and a positive mindset.
To be successful in this role, you will need:

•  Fluency in English (C2 level, spoken and written) and professional working proficiency in Dutch (B2 level or higher).

•  The ability to work independently and manage multiple priorities effectively.
•  A service-oriented mindset and a proactive approach to problem-solving.
•  Experience with basic HR or financial administrative support is considered a plus.
• A driver's license is a plus, but not a must.
