We listen, celebrate successes, and hold each other accountable, always with attention to people as well as to quality.

European outlook, locally rooted

With teams in the Netherlands and the DACH region, you work in an organization with a broad, European perspective. At the same time, the culture remains personal and close-knit. This gives you the opportunity to collaborate internationally at a high level, within a committed and engaged team.

Culture as a catalyst

Our culture is a key reason why colleagues enjoy working at Highberg. We place trust in our people, value initiative, and believe it is important that everyone can continue to develop. This enables you to get the best out of yourself, while together contributing to sustainable growth.

Your role as Marketing & Communication Specialist

As an All-round Marketing & Communications Specialist, you are the connecting link between the expertise of our consultants and the market. You combine marketing and communications in a broad role where you ensure strong execution. From campaigns and content to communication planning and stakeholder management, you make sure our expertise reaches and engages the right target audiences.

You develop marketing and communication plans, align them with the business, and collaborate with the marketing team to successfully bring them to life. In doing so, you make an important contribution to the continued growth and positioning of Highberg.

You actively immerse yourself in our services and understand the work our consultants do on a daily basis. This allows you to identify which marketing and communication activities are needed to achieve our ambitions and makes you a valuable sparring partner for the business.

More specifically, you will:

• Translate our marketing objectives into the right mix of marketing and communication activities, determining which channels and resources will deliver the greatest impact.
• Work closely with partners and consultants, supporting them with their marketing and communication activities.

• Increase the visibility of our expertise on LinkedIn and other relevant channels by focusing on reach, engagement and performance.
• Work daily with tools such as HubSpot and Google Search Console.
• Be part of a driven and enthusiastic marketing team where strategy and execution go hand in hand.

Who are you?

• You are a team player who takes a proactive approach and can easily switch between strategy, communication and execution.
• You are curious about new developments in marketing and communications, open to feedback and use it to continuously improve yourself and your work. You reflect on your own approach, learn from experience and are willing to try out new ideas.
• You have a structured, hands-on mindset and feel comfortable in a varied role with plenty of responsibility and room to take initiative.
• You are strong in stakeholder management and know how to engage and inspire partners and consultants. You translate their expertise into effective marketing and communication activities that make an impact.

• You have completed a bachelor’s degree (HBO level), preferably in Marketing, Communications, or a related field.
• You have at least 4 years of relevant B2B marketing experience, for example in a broad marketing and communications role.
• You have experience developing and executing marketing campaigns, such as content marketing initiatives and events.
• You take a data-driven approach and are able to translate ideas into concrete plans and measurable results.
• You possess excellent communication and copywriting skills, both verbal and written, in Dutch and English.

What do we offer?

• Attractive and comprehensive employment conditions: a competitive gross monthly salary ranging from €4,500 to €5,200, excluding holiday allowance, with variable compensation aligned with the responsibility and impact of your role, complemented by paid leave, mobility options, and a pension scheme.
• The best of two worlds: the intellectual sharpness and quality of a high end consultancy firm, combined with the agility and engagement of an entrepreneurial organization.
• Responsibility, autonomy, and entrepreneurship: from the very start, you take ownership in projects and client work, with plenty of room to take initiative, supported by experienced colleagues.
• Collaborating in an accessible environment: you work in a setting where decision making is close to the action and ideas quickly gain traction.
• Flexible working with strong connection: hybrid working is possible, combined with regular moments where we come together for collaboration, knowledge sharing, and team activities such as inspiring sessions and the Highberg Festival!
