Content Marketer

Since 1838, ARTIS has been a green oasis and gathering place in the heart of Amsterdam, where nature and culture come together. The historic ARTIS Park encompasses the zoo, the botanical garden, and the Planetarium. In addition, the ARTIS-Micropia museum inspires visitors with the invisible world of microbes, and the ARTIS-Groote Museum reveals the deeper connection between humans and nature. As a foundation and officially recognized charity, ARTIS is committed to strengthening our bond with nature, for a livable future for everyone.

Work

As a Content Marketer, you serve as the link between what happens at ARTIS and what the outside world sees, feels, and shares. You create content that is not only visually appealing but also effective: content that inspires, engages, and drives visitor traffic, engagement, and brand preference. You conceive and produce compelling formats for our online channels, social media, campaigns, and offline publications.

You will be working within the Audience & Programming cluster in the Marketing & Communications department. The Marketing & Communications department consists of 16 professionals and is responsible for all marketing activities as well as both internal and external communications. As a Content Marketer, you will work closely with our other Content Marketer and two Online Marketers.

Together, you’ll ensure that the content aligns well with ongoing campaigns and helps achieve marketing goals.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Developing and implementing a distinctive content strategy
• Creating compelling (SEO & GEO-optimized) content for social media, websites, campaigns, and email
• Collecting stories in the park: from animal caretakers to scientists, from fundraising to visitor services.
• Translating complex topics (nature, biodiversity, science) into accessible content
• Ensuring tone of voice and visual consistency
• Focusing on impact: you analyze performance and optimize formats
• Managing content planning and monitoring deadlines
• Collaborating with internal stakeholders, designers, photographers, videographers, and agencies

You'll have plenty of freedom to develop formats and take your content to the next level.

In addition:

• Do you have a degree in marketing, communications, journalism, or a related field?
• Do you have at least 3 years of experience in content marketing, editing, or storytelling?
• Write in clear, accessible, and error-free Dutch
• Do you have an eye for beautiful images and know how to capture them?
• Are you skilled at editing videos quickly (Premiere Pro)?
• Do you know what works on social media and how to optimize content to achieve marketing goals?

• Do you have an interest in nature, science, or social issues?

What does ARTIS offer?

Imagine walking through the historic gates of ARTIS in the morning, where the gibbons welcome you with their songs. You’ll show the first visitors around, excited for the day ahead. During your onboarding, you’ll get to know all of ARTIS’s departments: from working in the gift shop to helping plant flower bulbs and cultivate microbes. Just like your work environment, your job is incredibly varied.

ARTIS offers you a job with responsibility and challenges at the most beautiful workplace in the Netherlands. A place where you can make a lasting difference. You’ll have a wide range of responsibilities and the authority to match, plenty of room for new initiatives and ideas, and at ARTIS, we maintain direct lines of communication between employees and managers. You’ll be versatile and work collaboratively with various departments at ARTIS to achieve results, all within an informal and friendly atmosphere.

We are initially offering you a twelve-month contract with the intention of extending it thereafter. ARTIS offers a generous travel allowance that encourages the use of sustainable transportation. You will also receive a contribution toward supplemental health insurance and enjoy discounts at other parks in the Netherlands.

In addition, ARTIS has a relaxation and prayer room, a gym, offers a fully vegetarian menu, and allows employees to exchange recognized holidays and commemorative days for other holidays such as Keti Koti and Eid al-Fitr. We also organize monthly get-togethers at our regular hangout, Eik en Linde, and employees can participate in events and lectures at ARTIS Park, the Planetarium, the Groote Museum, and Micropia.
