WORKING AT VAN DER MAAREL?
At a birthday party, you would say: “Van der Maarel is the specialist in Event Styling in the Netherlands and beyond. We provide decorations, plants, furniture, and most importantly: ambiance. The complete picture. We work on renowned projects like Fashion & Beauty events. We also shine at events such as the Grand Prix and festivals like Tomorrowland. I work with a fun, close-knit team. We love a good laugh, but more than anything, we’re passionate about working hard to uphold our reputation.”
As an Office Manager, you ensure that the organization runs smoothly. You’re the linchpin responsible for the daily organization of operations. You’re not just behind the scenes—you also welcome partners and clients, ensuring the office looks top-notch. Additionally, you manage HR tasks, making sure no two days are ever the same.

Operational HR tasks (such as drafting contracts, managing personnel administration, handling leave requests, and recruitment & selection);
Administration related to training and development;
Keeping company policies up to date.

Preferably, a completed degree in a relevant field with at least MBO+ work and thinking level (though dedication and motivation are even more important);
Strong communication and organizational skills;
Stress resilience to keep up in our dynamic work environment;
A hands-on attitude and proactivity—we do it together;
Proficiency in the Microsoft Office suite;
Fluency in Dutch (spoken and written); English and German skills are a plus;
Experience with Exact software is a plus.

We’re a close-knit team of creative and driven event professionals. We aim to grow and help each other grow. You’ll have the opportunity to develop, be yourself, make an impact, and leave your mark on our events.
In addition, you can count on practical matters such as:
A long-term relationship with opportunities for growth;
An independent and varied role where you manage your own “shop”;
A fantastic workplace at Bink36 with the most amazing colleagues;
