Impact Investment Analyst (ENG)

What will you be doing?

As an Analyst on the DOEN Participaties team, you’ll play an active role in investments that bring DOEN’s green, social, and creative vision to life. Working closely with your colleagues in a self-managing team, you’ll help maximize the impact of our current portfolio and support the process of evaluating new investments. This includes financial analysis of early-stage startups, market research, and even contract negotiations. You’ll also help scout new, forward-thinking entrepreneurs who could be a great fit for our funding.

We’re looking for someone who:

• Has an academic background (WO level thinking and working);
• Brings maximum 3 years of relevant experience – for example in venture capital, foundations, or experience in an internship in the investment/finance space;
• Feels a strong connection with DOEN Participaties’ mission and values;
• Has an interest in sustainable consumer products (a plus!);
• Is fluent in English, written and spoken and preferably in Dutch or willing to learn.

What we offer:

• A motivated and enthusiastic team in an open, collaborative culture where diverse backgrounds lead to shared learning;
• A unique impact investing environment that embraces risk and supports entrepreneurs from the very beginning. We think beyond borders, operate across continents, and welcome fresh ideas;
• A deep dive into the world of impact investing, where you’ll work daily with some of the most pioneering, mission-driven startups. You’ll have the chance to make a real difference and contribute to a more sustainable future;
• Plenty of room for personal initiative and professional growth;
• A competitive salary and attractive benefits package;
• A one-year full-time contract (40 hours/week) with the intention to extend to a permanent position;
• An NS Business Card for unlimited travel across the Netherlands by train, bus, tram, and metro – even outside of work hours;
• Weekly free bootcamp, pilates, and other sports classes;
• Daily team lunches in our company restaurant.

Where you’ll be working:

You’ll be based in our sustainable office just a 6-minutes walk from Amsterdam Zuid station. Around 45 passionate, entrepreneurial, and committed colleagues work at the DOEN Foundation and DOEN Participaties, all from diverse backgrounds. We believe diversity fuels creativity, innovation, and collaboration. We warmly welcome applicants from all walks of life – especially if you’ve ever felt less included in the job market because of your gender or sexual identity, religion, age, background, or ability.

The application process

The procedure includes three interviews, a case assignment, and an assessment.
Because integrity and responsible behavior are essential to our organization, a Certificate of Conduct (VOG) is required to join Stichting DOEN. Candidates without a valid VOG unfortunately won’t be considered for the role.
