A great place to work

The HR department is located at our headquarters in Amsterdam-Zuid and consists of five enthusiastic colleagues: an HR manager, a recruiter, and three HR advisors. Each colleague has their own area of expertise, and the departments/offices are divided. There is plenty of room for collaboration among us. We value vitality, which is why we like to stretch our legs during lunch and take a walk together. We work in a hybrid model (from the headquarters, the offices, and from home).
