This is a hands-on role for someone who enjoys building relationships, creating opportunities, and making things happen. You'll play a key role in growing our partnerships while helping deliver impactful events for our community and partners.

• Follow up on proposals, contracts, and commercial conversations

• Help organise career events, workshops, networking events, and company visits

• Coordinate with marketing to make sure partner campaigns run smoothly

• Attend events and represent HerFuture in conversations with companies, universities, and ecosystem partners

• Spot opportunities for growth and take ownership of turning them into reality

‍

Must-haves

• 2-4 years of experience in sales, partnerships, business development, account management, recruitment, or a similar commercial role

• Fluent in Dutch and English

• Strong communication and relationship-building skills

• Comfortable taking ownership and working independently

• Organised, proactive, and hands-on

‍

Nice-to-have

• Experience working in a startup or scale-up environment

• Experience with Salesforce

Please note: Due to the expected volume of applications, candidates without relevant commercial or recruitment experience will not be taken into consideration for this role.

‍

What we offer

• A role with real ownership and responsibility

• The opportunity to work directly with the founders

• A fast-learning environment where your ideas are valued

• Hybrid working

• Competitive salary+ bonus

• SARs (Stock Appreciation Rights), so you can share in the long-term success of HerFuture

• The chance to help shape the future of a fast-growing company with a meaningful mission

‍

This role is ideal for someone who has built a strong commercial foundation and is ready for more ownership, impact, and growth.

At HerFuture, we know that talented people, especially women and underrepresented groups, often hesitate to apply unless they meet every requirement. If you're excited about this role and believe you can make an impact, we encourage you to apply, even if you don't tick every single box.
