HR Manager and TA Lead | AdTech | Amsterdam

HR Manager and TA Lead

About the Company

Our client is a fast-growing Adtech scale-up based in Amsterdam, active across many European markets. Their platform processes millions of transactions per month, connecting advertisers and retailers with performance-driven tools to compete at scale.

This is not a startup finding product-market fit — they have it. This is a scale-up executing on a clear path to a solid FTE-plan by 2027. They offer real ownership early, a flat structure with direct access to decision-makers, and work that is commercially consequential.

Description

We're hiring an HR Manager, TA Lead and Office Manager, all in one, to own the people function end-to-end — HR, recruitment, employer brand, and office management — inside the CFO branch. No one micromanaging the function. You set the priorities, run the processes, and deliver.

Office management currently sits without a dedicated owner. In the near term you carry it. As the company scales toward target structure, a dedicated Office Manager is planned — until then, this is part of the job.

Role

What You'll Own

Talent Acquisition

  • Full-cycle recruitment: scoping, sourcing, process, offer, onboarding

  • Proactive outbound via LinkedIn; external agencies for hard-to-fill or specialist roles

  • Manage agency relationships: briefing, quality control, fee structure, performance

  • Manage EOR provider relationships for employees engaged outside the Netherlands

  • Target: time-to-hire under 45 days — track it and manage to it

Employer Brand

  • Own the company's careers presence: LinkedIn, careers page, how they show up to candidates

  • Position the company as a destination for commercially-minded people who want real ownership in a scaling European tech business

  • Define and maintain a high-quality, consistent candidate experience from first contact to offer

HR Operations & Compliance

  • Full employee lifecycle: contracts, onboarding, changes, offboarding — compliant and clean

  • Dutch employment law and GDPR/AVG for people data

  • Payroll inputs with Finance including cross-border and EOR complexity

  • HR casework: sound judgement, documented outcomes

HR Strategy

  • Advise the CFO and leadership on compensation, workforce planning, org design

  • Meaningful HR metrics: retention, headcount cost, time-to-hire, engagement

  • Build the business case for a second HR hire as the company scales toward a stable employee base

Office Management

  • Day-to-day running of the Amsterdam office: facilities, supplies, vendors, access

  • Onboarding logistics: workspace setup, equipment, tools for new joiners

  • Team events and offsites — logistically owned, not delegated

What We Expect

The stakeholder environment is senior, direct, and occasionally challenging. You hold your ground — on process, on compliance, on what is and isn't the right call — with confidence and without drama.

  • Autonomous by default: you decide what needs doing and do it

  • Backbone when it counts: HR exists to make the business better, not to rubber-stamp leadership

  • Lean mindset: external specialists for legal/tax complexity — not empire-building

  • Direct: no jargon, no preamble, difficult messages delivered professionally

  • Commercially aware: people decisions connect to the P&L

Your Profile

  • 5+ years HR with genuine ownership of both operations and recruitment

  • Solid, practical knowledge of Dutch employment law

  • Proven direct sourcing track record (LinkedIn Recruiter)

  • Experience managing external agency and EOR provider relationships

  • Composure and confidence in senior stakeholder environments

  • Strong Dutch and English — both required

  • Scale-up background preferred (20–100 employees)

  • Multi-country EU employment experience a strong plus

What's on Offer

  • Competitive base + performance bonus

  • Real ownership of a function that matters, with a clear path to building a small team

  • 25 days annual leave

  • ClassPass

  • Travel reimbursement

  • Company laptop

  • Hybrid: Amsterdam HQ with flexibility

About the Company

A fast-growing Adtech scale-up active in many European markets, on a mission to build the smartest, most performance-driven platform in the industry. With a growing team of over 40 employees across tech, operations, marketing, and sales, the company is building the foundation to support its next stage of scale.

Role summary

We’re looking for a hands-on Business Operations (BizOps) Manager to design, improve, and scale how our company operates across all departments.

This role owns problems end-to-end—from diagnosing inefficiencies to implementing solutions and ensuring adoption.

You will work directly with leadership and teams to turn unclear, inconsistent workflows into simple, scalable systems.

1. Diagnose operational gaps

  • Analyze how teams currently work (Sales, Product, Engineering, Support, etc.)

  • Identify:

    • Bottlenecks

    • Redundant work

    • Lack of ownership

    • Missing processes

  • Turn ambiguity into clearly defined problems

2. Design and implement processes

  • Create practical, lightweight processes (not bureaucracy)

  • Build:

    • SOPs

    • Playbooks

    • Workflows

  • Ensure processes are:

    • Easy to follow

    • Actually used (not just documented)

3. Own execution (not just design)

  • Drive implementation across teams

  • Align stakeholders and push changes through

  • Remove friction during rollout

  • Ensure processes are adopted and followed

This is not a “strategy-only” role—execution is core.

4. Improve existing systems

  • Audit current tools and workflows

  • Optimize:

    • CRM / pipeline flows

    • Project management processes

    • Internal communication

  • Introduce automation where it reduces manual work

5. Define and track key metrics

  • Build simple reporting (dashboards, weekly metrics)

  • Ensure leadership has visibility into performance

6. Enable cross-team alignment

  • Fix broken handoffs between teams

  • Clarify roles and responsibilities

  • Reduce miscommunication and duplication

7. Continuous improvement

  • Regularly review processes and refine them

  • Build feedback loops with teams

  • Ensure systems scale as the company grows

What we’re looking for

Must-have

  • Strong problem-solving ability (can break down messy situations)

  • Proven experience in operations, consulting, or similar roles

  • Ability to move from analysis → execution quickly

  • Comfortable working across multiple teams and functions

  • High ownership mindset (doesn’t wait for direction)

Critical traits (non-negotiable)

  • Hands-on: willing to do the work, not just advise

  • Pragmatic: avoids over-engineering

  • Influential: can drive change without formal authority

  • Structured thinker: brings clarity where there is none

Nice-to-have

  • Experience in startups or fast-growing companies

  • Familiarity with tools like:

    • Notion / Confluence

    • Jira / Asana

    • HubSpot / Salesforce

  • Experience with process frameworks (Lean, etc.)

What this role is NOT

  • Not a project manager tracking tasks

  • Not a pure strategist making slides

  • Not a “process police” creating bureaucracy

interested? DM the Vondel team on Linkedin or email info@vondel.co

Senior Performance Marketer | Fast-Growing HealthTech Scale-Up in Amsterdam

Senior Performance Marketer | Fast-Growing HealthTech Scale-Up

Drive Growth at One of Europe's Emerging HealthTech Companies

A rapidly growing HealthTech scale-up is transforming how consumers access healthcare through a modern, digital-first approach. Backed by more than €2 million in funding and operating across multiple European markets, the company is entering an exciting new phase of growth.

To support this expansion, we are looking for a Senior Performance Marketer who can take ownership of performance marketing, scale acquisition channels, and drive measurable business growth.

Based in Amsterdam, the business is already active in several European markets and continues to expand internationally.

The Opportunity

As Senior Performance Marketer, you will own and scale the company's paid acquisition channels, with a strong focus on Paid Social. This is a highly hands-on role for someone who enjoys executing, testing, optimizing, and continuously improving performance across the entire customer journey.

You'll have significant autonomy to shape strategy, manage substantial advertising budgets, launch growth experiments, and identify opportunities to improve efficiency and scale.

Success in this role requires a combination of analytical thinking, commercial ownership, and executional excellence.

What You'll Be Doing

  • Own, manage, and scale paid acquisition channels, primarily Paid Social

  • Build, launch, test, and optimize campaigns focused on customer acquisition and growth

  • Analyze performance data and translate insights into actionable improvements

  • Collaborate closely with creative and brand teams to develop high-performing ad creatives

  • Improve key metrics including CAC, LTV, ROAS, and conversion rates

  • Develop structured testing frameworks, reporting processes, and growth experiments

  • Optimize the entire funnel, from ad performance to landing pages, conversion flows, checkout experiences, and retention

What We're Looking For

The ideal candidate combines strategic thinking with a strong execution mindset.

You have:

  • 5+ years of experience in Performance Marketing

  • Proven experience managing and scaling large Paid Social budgets

  • Strong analytical and data-driven decision-making skills

  • Experience in high-growth startup or scale-up environments

  • A hands-on mentality and willingness to own execution

  • The ability to independently identify opportunities and implement improvements

  • Experience working with conversion optimization and full-funnel growth

  • HBO/Bachelor-level education or equivalent

  • Experience at a marketing agency is considered a plus

  • Affinity with digital products, subscriptions, e-commerce, or HealthTech is a plus

What Makes This Role Different

This is not a reporting-heavy performance role.

We're specifically looking for someone who loves execution. Someone who doesn't stop at dashboards or analysis but immediately translates insights into action.

The successful candidate understands that growth is driven by constant testing, optimization, and ownership. They are comfortable diving deep into data, making decisions quickly, and improving every step of the customer journey.

While creative intuition is valuable, this position is significantly more data-driven than creative-led.

Compensation & Benefits

  • Salary between €60,000 and €85,000 depending on experience

  • Ownership of performance marketing within a fast-growing HealthTech scale-up

  • Significant freedom to experiment and drive growth

  • Work alongside an ambitious and entrepreneurial team

  • Hybrid working environment based in Amsterdam

  • Key role in shaping a business during a critical growth phase
