Be

the true

you!

Are you our ideal Chief?

You are proactive, highly entrepreneurial, energetic and know how to connect people.

You realize that creating a better world is neither a job nor a project. It’s not something that’s done Monday to Friday and between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m… It’s a philosophy and lifestyle.

You also stand firmly in your shoes, dare to chart a course and make desired and desirable decisions. Building lasting relationships comes easily to you, with people at all levels.

1 + 1 = 11

Your interpersonal skills are excellent and you listen and inspire empathically. You manage by results and always strive for a win-win for all parties.

With us, 1 + 1 = 11 applies. That’s the deal.

Result-oriented

You like to steer for results and you set high standards for yourself as an example and thus for others. You dare to hold people accountable for agreements and results, but always in a human way. If you can do better, you must do better. Because it is nice to be the best for the world.

Furthermore, it would be great if you have:

Unbridled commitment, strong drive and keen interest in people and their motivations, as well as the personal ambition to take Speakers for Good to the next level;
Demonstrable and multi-year experience as an entrepreneurial primus inter pares, with specific affinity for Speakers for Good’s services and market;
Demonstrated background and multi-year experience in a senior marketing role, preferably gained at an agency or other business service provider and more as a “do-er” than a strategist;
Excellent command of the Dutch and English languages, verbally and in writing;
In addition to an impressive marketing track record, concrete experience selling services makes you the ‘ideal chief with five legs’ for us.
