Executive Assistant to the CEO (On-Site, Amsterdam)

The Company

Early-stage. Well-backed. Technical at its core. This is a business moving fast in a space that hasnt moved fast enough for a long time. The team is lean the ambition isnt. Theyre at an inflexion point and they know it.

The Role

The CEO needs someone who makes complexity disappear.

Not someone who manages a diary. Someone who owns it. Who sees whats coming before it arrives solves problems before theyre flagged and keeps everything moving without needing to be asked twice.

This goes well beyond traditional executive support. Youre the operational backbone of the CEOs world the person who ensures nothing slips priorities stay clear and the small things never become big ones. Over time there is real scope to take ownership of broader office operations and eventually the people within it.

If you take genuine pride in making things run flawlessly behind the scenes this is the role to do it in.

What Youll Own

Calendar and inbox management with priorities protected and nothing chased twice. End-to-end travel and logistics including real-time problem solving when plans change. Recruiting coordination that is fast organised and frictionless. Office operations increasingly yours to define and improve. Stakeholder visits handled with care. Administrative work done with precision.

Who You Are

Youve operated inside a startup and you know what that actually means. Ambiguity doesnt faze you. Processes that dont exist yet dont faze you. A founder who moves fast and expects you to keep up doesnt faze you.

Youre organised in a way most people arent you communicate clearly close loops without prompting and handle sensitive information with the judgment it deserves. You dont wait to be told something is a problem. Youve already fixed it.

Fluent in English and Dutch. Amsterdam-based.

The Practicalities

This is a full-time on-site role based in Amsterdam. Youll be there every day embedded in the team and close to the action. The position operates on a freelance basis so youll need to be set up accordingly or be prepared to do so before starting.

The Opportunity

Real responsibility from day one. Genuine proximity to leadership. Direct exposure to the inner workings of a scaling business. And real room to grow as the company does.
