Junior Community Manager

Are you someone who gets a lot of energy from being around people, and energized by organizing activities with others? We are looking for a Junior Community Manager, who wants to be hands-on, on the floor hosting events and working the bar, but also grow over time to a bigger role within our community organizing events and empowering others to become active in the community! You’ll work closely with our community manager. Most of your time — around 14–20 hours per week — will be spent working as a café and event host (see the job opening for Cafe Host above for details). During your other hours (~10 per week), you’ll gradually take on your own community management responsibilities: Regularly attend activities and occasionally organize activities yourself. Staying in touch with members, volunteers and hosts. Take initiative to build community cohesion. Helping members turn their activity ideas into reality. Keeping the events calendar up to date and promoting activities. Planning special events and events outside of the cafe. Coordinate with external event and workshop hosts. Contribute to the newsletter and internal and external promotion copy. Administrative tasks related to community & memberships. Diverse other tasks (we are a small team so some flexibility in tasks is required). You’ll work partly during the week and partly in the evenings and on weekends. You’ll be on-site most of the time, but can do a small portion of your work remotely. Ideally, you live in The Hague or the immediate vicinity. You’re a true “people person.” You enjoy interacting with people from all over the world, have a high level of empathy, and can empower others. You get excited about all kinds of people’s hobbies and activities. You have strong communication skills, even in complex situations. You can lead groups and activities and don’t get stressed easily. You have an entrepreneurial mindset and are driven. You truly identify with our mission to make learning Dutch more fun and easier and to help people settle in the Netherlands. You’re able to coordinate many different types of initiatives and people at the same time whil
