- You are an open and fun teammate – independent yet supportive – thriving in an entrepreneurial atmosphere;
- You enjoy an environment with open and honest feedback;
- You have EU citizenship or a valid residency/work permit;
- You are fluent in English (no Dutch required, but a plus).
- A role that allows you to hone your dashboarding skills, where you will learn to understand the higher education market and design user-friendly dashboards that are engaging and informative;
- Competitive salary including a bonus and pension;
- 32 vacation days (including bank holidays) you have the flexibility to take your holidays whenever you want (e.g. be off on Chinese New Year instead of King’s Day);
- Possibility to buy/sell 5 vacation days out of your annual balance;
- Hybrid work of three days per week from home, two from our Eindhoven office (generally Mondays and Wednesdays);
- Employee referral bonuses. Studyportals is always hiring and it’s just an extra chance to work with friends (and earn some extra cash!);
- An annual personal development budget, because personal growth is KEY!
- Reimbursement of your work-related travel costs;
- Possibility to work from abroad 2 times a year;
- An informal, entrepreneurial, international and flexible atmosphere where self-initiative is highly appreciated;
- Our office is in the centre of Eindhoven (Strijp-S) in the Klokgebouw, 30 seconds from the Strijp-S station and five minutes from central station;
- Possibility to grow along with a rapidly growing company;
- The opportunity to help revolutionize the worldwide study-choice market;
