Social Media & Video Manager (F/M/X)

Who are you?

• You have proven experience and an affinity for social media, as well as for conceptualizing, creating, and producing content.
• You see it as a challenge to implement the Concertgebouw’s current social media strategy as effectively as possible.
• You enjoy working in a leadership role alongside our team of freelance content creators.
• You are skilled at organizing, managing, and planning large (video) projects.
• You have an affinity for (classical) music and the Concertgebouw.
• You have a good command of Dutch and English.

No two people are alike. The Concertgebouw strives to be an organization where everyone feels welcome and safe—a place where employees can be themselves and are given the freedom and recognition they need to contribute to our mission in their own way.

What does your team look like?

Within the Marketing, Communications, and Sales department, you will be part of the Content Team. This is a dedicated and enthusiastic team made up of various specialists in the field of content, including copywriting, web editing, image editing, and graphic design. Within the Concertgebouw, the Content Team is responsible for the substantive, often narrative (marketing) communications, such as brochures, podcasts, and videos.

What will you be doing?

As an interim Social Media & Video Manager, you will continue to implement the Concertgebouw’s current social media strategy. You will develop a wide range of social media content in collaboration with our freelance content creators and with input from the Marketing department, among others. You will actually create some of the content yourself. The role also involves conceptualizing and producing videos and concert recordings, which includes creatively and substantively directing external video teams. In your role, you will ensure that the Concertgebouw’s online image is maintained and monitored. In generating attention for the Concertgebouw on social media, you will work closely with the Press & PR Manager, the Marketing department, and the Programming department of the Concertgebouw. Social advertising is not part of the role.

Your main responsibilities will be:

• Consistently establishing and monitoring the Concertgebouw’s online image on social media;
• Implementing the social media strategy (for platforms such as Instagram, YouTube, Facebook, and TikTok);
• Coordinating collaboration with our team of freelance content creators;
• Active, direct communication with visitors via all social media channels (customer service);
• Achieving social media goals related to organic content;
• Managing the social media budget;
• Analyzing social media statistics;
• Initiating, developing, coordinating, and distributing online content productions, and managing the production partners involved;
• Proactively reaching out to relevant online media (influencers, blogs, vlogs, etc.) in collaboration with the Press & PR Manager;

What do we offer?

• A salary between €3,128 and €4,082 gross per month based on full-time employment (38 hours per week).
• Vacation pay and a pension plan.
• Flexible working hours.
• You can work partly from home if you want to.
• With the free ticket program, you can attend concerts in what we (in our humble opinion) consider to be the most beautiful concert hall in the Netherlands.
• The opportunity to take yoga classes, join our running team, or sing in our staff choir every week.
• And above all, you’ll be part of a dedicated and enthusiastic team in a dynamic and informal work environment.

The temporary contract for the position of Social Media Manager runs from mid-June 2025 through mid-January 2026 (7 months).
