•  Support the onboarding of new team members and keep shared documents and the project website current.

•  Be the organisational point of contact that keeps a dispersed team connected.

•  Communicates clearly and warmly with people across cultures and time zones.

•  Works independently and manages their time well within limited hours.

•  Is comfortable with everyday digital tools (calendars, spreadsheets, task/project tools)

•  A part-time (0.2 fte) role in a well-resourced, international ERC project.

• The contract is initially for one year with the possibility to extend for an additional 2.

•  Salary and conditions in line with the Collective Labour Agreement of Dutch Universities. The gross monthly salary, based on a 38-hour working week and depending on relevant work experience, ranges from €3,202 to €4,159 (scale 7). This excludes the 8% holiday allowance and the 8.3% end-of-year bonus.

•  Flexible, hybrid working, a friendly international team, and the vibrant Amsterdam research community.
