Press Officer

Ready to get shit done?

At bunq, we’re on a mission to Make Life Easy for our users by creating the most user-centric banking experience out there. People trust a brand they hear from the people who run it, so we want our executives on the stages, podcasts and interviews that reach our users when they aren’t looking for a bank.

That’s where you come in. As our Press Officer, you’ll own how bunq’s executives show up in public. You’ll secure the high-profile speaking slots, podcasts and interviews that give bunq global reach. AI can draft a pitch or a post, but it can’t build trust with a journalist, stand next to an executive at a live event, or step in when reputation is on the line. That part is yours.

• Hybrid
• Location: Amsterdam
• Working hours: 40 hours per week

Take Ownership 🚀

You’ll own bunq’s executive profiling from first pitch to live stage. Here’s how you’ll do it:

• Secure 2 high-profile podcast opportunities in your first 3 months and 3 high-profile speaking opportunities in your first 6 months, by pitching months ahead of events
• Deliver an industry AI thought leadership event in the Netherlands within your first 3 months
• Build relationships with national journalists, staff executive interviews and events, and shape the keynotes our executives deliver, stepping in live when reputation demands it

This challenge is perfect for you if

• You’ve managed relationships with journalists and senior executives with authority, including in live interviews and events
• You’ve worked in tech, fintech or AI communications and can talk to specialist press and event organizers without a briefing on the basics
• You’ve built speaking or media pipelines well ahead of events and pitched high-profile slots months in advance
• You check every fact, name and logistic detail before it goes out
• You use AI to speed up your drafts and never publish its output without questioning it
