Vacancy: Project Coordinator Africa & Asia

Are you an enthusiastic and energetic professional who also likes to make a difference? Do you want to work in an innovative organization where social impact is central? Then you have come to the right place. We are immediately looking for a driven Project Coordinator to strengthen our team!

At Net4kids we believe that every child should have the chance to build his or her own future. We offer education, healthcare and a safe environment for young people in Asia and Africa. But we don't believe in old school charity. That's why Net4kids is specifically there for companies and entrepreneurs, because our business-oriented approach aligns with the social goals of organizations and ensures concrete and visible results. For the children and for the companies that participate. So: more impact, more involvement, more financial and social return. The beginning of a better world.

You are the linchpin between our local implementing partners, investors in the Netherlands and the internal team, ensuring effective implementation and monitoring of our projects.

Who are we?

We are a small, close-knit team of 4 permanent employees, plus an active group of ambassadors and volunteers. All with a shared passion: offering children opportunities. We work from our cozy office NEST in Amstelveen. Among the startups and entrepreneurs. That makes us happy. And with a good cup of coffee we can achieve even more, so that is also well arranged. Working from home for a day? We invented flexible working long before Corona. Net4kids'ers are real team players, able to keep several balls in the air at the same time. Also for each other. And we are all willing to contribute voluntarily.

  • Managing projects from start to finish, including planning, budgeting and reporting.
  • Actively collaborate with our local partners to ensure that project goals are achieved.
  • Maintaining good relations with stakeholders, both locally and internationally.
  • Contribute to the further development of our project strategy and selection in collaboration with our Managing Director.
  • Processing extensive reports into project updates for our investors in collaboration with our MarCom manager.
  • Coordinating, organizing and supervising project visits to local partners.

What are we asking?

  • Minimum 3 years of experience as Project/Program Manager/Project Coordinator, preferably in the non-profit or development sector.
  • Strong organizational skills and the ability to manage multiple projects simultaneously.
  • Excellent communication skills, both oral and written, in Dutch and English.
  • A curious, proactive and results-oriented attitude, with a heart for our mission.
  • Are you dotting the i's and crossing the t's?

What do we offer?

  • A challenging job with room for personal and professional growth.
  • The chance to really make a difference for children worldwide.
  • A warm welcome to our close-knit and dedicated team.
  • A flexible workplace, including the option to work partly from home.
  • A suitable salary based on your experience and skills (24 – 28 hours per week)
  • Travel expenses reimbursement and a pension scheme.
