Copywriter

Hi and welcome to our jobpost 😄 ! We have an exciting opportunity for a Copywriter to join our team! We are expanding our EdTech scaleup Bijles Aan Huis & Lernigo.... So let me dive right into it.....
We're a promising tech-savvy startup-moving-into-scaleup that created a tutoring marketplace in the Netherlands and have recently expanded to Germany. We have a fully remote team with people all over the world. It's working, we're growing fast, we've got excellent backing, and there are some very exciting times ahead for us. 🚀💪 Our mission is to help as many students as possible get the most out of their education, through accessible high-quality at home and online tuition. We do this by building an accessible high-quality product, with which we can solve the problems of a student in today’s world with, unfortunately, an inadequate educational system. In our product, the tutor and technology play a central role, and we’re constantly seeking new ways to help our students. We're about 2.5 years old and launched our first product over a year ago. Ever since the launch, we have seen explosive growth in the number of students, tutors, and revenue. This growth resulted in more funding which allowed us to hire more talent to help us build a better product and accelerate our growth (like with the expansion to Germany). Our team has grown from 5 people about a year ago, to over 20 people today and we are continuing hiring to expand our team.
