Job description

who we are

extreme cashmere builds an ongoing cashmere collection, a wardrobe that grows edition by edition without being tied to seasons or trends. these editions are for every body and everybody. we create long-lasting garments that surprise with shape, color and detail. luxury, for us, is the feeling of something done exactly right, essential and transformative in ways that are hard to explain and easy to feel.

calendar and diary management

you'll own and align both agendas end to end, plan weeks ahead and protect focus time and travel time.

travel and logistics

you'll plan international travel: flights, hotels, ground transport, visas, appointments on the ground and clear itineraries. you'll build trips that make sense commercially, leaving room for the unexpected.

meetings, cadence and follow-up

you'll run the leadership rhythm: management team meetings, unit reviews, board and investor sessions, offsites. you'll prepare agendas and briefing material, capture decisions and actions and chase them until they are closed.

inbox and communication

you'll manage incoming mail, filter what matters and answer directly where you can in the voice of the person you are writing for, in english and ideally in dutch. you'll be the first point of contact for partners, suppliers, agencies and candidates.

events, guests and hospitality

you'll organize showroom visits, market appointments, press and partner moments, dinners and team gatherings hosted by the founder or the managing director.

what you need

• 5+ years of experience supporting senior leadership, ideally in a fashion, lifestyle, luxury or creative environment, or in a fast-moving founder-led company.


• proven strength in complex international calendar and travel management across time zones.


• absolute discretion: you will see commercial, financial and personal information.


• anticipation as a default setting.


• excellent written and spoken english. dutch is a strong plus.


• the ability to be calm under pressure and quick on your feet.


• warmth and confidence with people at every level.


• fluency with modern work tools (google workspace, notion, slack, travel and expense platforms) and the ability to learn new ones quickly.


• comfort with scale-up pace and ambiguity: hands-on, proactive and no task too small.

what we offer

• a front-row seat next to the founder and the managing director of a growing international brand.


• a beautiful product with a strong brand identity and loyal customer base.


• a collaborative, international team in amsterdam.
