● Create and produce event concepts for events like Paris fashion week, pop-up stores and collection launches.

● You know what feels authentic and can spot a good story

● You know the Dutch media landscape and understand which publications, journalists and creators matter for a brand like ours

● You're organised, proactive and comfortable working in a small, fast-moving team where everyone rolls up their sleeves

● You're a creative thinker who does not just execute, but also comes up with angles and ideas that make a story worth telling

● An existing network in Dutch lifestyle or fashion media is a plus

WHAT DO WE OFFER:

● A role in Amsterdam for 4-5 days a week, based at our office by the water

● A salary that matches your experience and the role

● 25 vacation days based on full-time employment

● Staff discount on our collections

ABOUT US:

New Amsterdam is born from the energy of the city and shaped by the reality of cold-water surf. Built between concrete and coastline, we created our own perspective on surf culture: raw, real and unapologetically our own. Euro, city, surf.

We're a hands-on, culture-driven team of surfers, designers and creatives building a brand we believe in. We work closely together, think independently and make things that feel true to who we are.

NASA's marketing team is small and closely connected to the brand. We handle everything from campaign planning and content to community and press. You'll report to the Marketing Manager and work alongside a team that cares about what we make and how it's received.
