INTERNSHIP • AMSTERDAM • ON-SITE

Why an internship at Assist Digital NL?

We are an independent European agency based in Amsterdam, part of the city’s digital landscape for over 25 years. Our independence allows us the freedom to decide how we best support our clients. We work with A‑brands globally and across Europe, including Nike, AB InBev, de Bijenkorf, Tommy Hilfiger, and AkzoNobel. Our work has been recognised with awards like Global Golden Effie (2025), SAN Accents, EFFIE and Esprix.

We actively invest in our people’s growth through various internal and external initiatives. While based in the Netherlands, speaking Dutch is not a requirement to join our team.

What we offer

You will be based in our beautiful (and bright) open‑spaced office in Amsterdam‑Overamstel. We work in a dynamic and inspiring environment in which we treat each other with respect and kindness. Our organisation structure is flat and ensures open communication. In addition to a tempting package of employment conditions, career prospects, and training opportunities, we offer bootcamps, lunch by our cook, and Friday drinks at our massive bar.

HR & Recruitment Intern

As our HR & Recruitment Intern, no two days are the same. You will be deeply involved in the day‑to‑day ‘people’ side of our agency. You will help the HR team navigate the entire employee lifecycle: from finding top talent and coordinating interviews, to ensuring our HR operations run smoothly and that our people can thrive.

Who we are looking for:

• You’re in the third or fourth year of your studies (HBO/WO);
• You’re looking for a work placement (or in case of a graduation internship, you’re able to work at least 3 days a week besides your graduation project);
• You’re full‑time available for 20 weeks (or longer);
• You have excellent interpersonal skills;
• You have a proactive mindset and an eye for detail;
• You’re confident in both Dutch and English.

Project Manager / Communication Intern

As a Project Manager / Communication Intern you support the operating of our creative digital agency and you are a ‘spider in the web’, so you will need good communicating skills. You help the team manage around 60 colleagues and assist with many different projects. You help to provide your colleagues with the right input by setting up resource schedules and monitoring them. Safeguard the quality of the output, budget and ensure that we deliver what has been agreed on. We use the Agile working method for most of our projects and we will make sure that you can learn this way of working.

Who we are looking for:

• You’re in the final year of your studies (HBO/WO);
• You’re full‑time available for 20 weeks (or longer);
• You have good communicating and stakeholder management skills;
• You have a commercial mindset;
• You speak English (speaking Dutch is an advantage).

User Experience Design Intern

Hey, congratulations! You chose to pursue a career in design, and that choice has survived all the way to the internship phase. You have these shiny new skills, time to see what you can do with them. From here, the contribution you want to make to design will frame your career.

Your first team

The environment you choose to do that will have long‑reaching ramifications on your career. Too small a company, and you won’t get to fully experience the complexities of working on large projects with multi‑layered teams. Too big, and your contributions may go unnoticed. We have that “sweet spot” mid‑size team of 60 people. Your diverse squad will consist of: Creative directors, UX Designers, Strategists, Data analysts, Front‑end and Back‑end Developers, and of course, Planners, Project managers and Client Account Managers.

Is it right for you?

Designers who are interested in all mediums but have a strong affiliation with digital design. You are comfortable with conceptual thinking as well as design systems. You’re a sponge that wants to soak up more the mechanical aspects of getting things done and looking to develop your soft skills as well. You’re not intimidated by large multinational clients and excited by popular local brands.

The hard skills list

• An understanding of visual design for brand communication.
• Confident grasp of UX.
• Comprehension of design systems.
• Proficient with Sketch or Figma, Photoshop, Fireworks, Illustrator,
• Keynote/Powerpoint etc. (a few of these are pretty essential).

Visual Design Intern

We are looking for a Visual Design Intern to join our team in the Netherlands. At Assist Digital, we help brands create better experiences by bridging the gap between high‑level strategy and detailed craft. As an intern, you will work on real client projects alongside our senior designers. You will create components, refine design systems, and ensure visual consistency across digital journeys. We value practical design decisions over decorative trends.

Back‑end Development Intern

Are you an ambitious HBO student in the ICT field and do you not shy away from a challenge? Then Assist Digital NL might be the place for you! In addition to your internship, there is sufficient guidance and freedom to develop and work on your (graduation) assignment. As a developer at Assist Digital NL you will develop various applications and websites. These applications are developed in .NET and MVC. The applications we deliver are produced from a variety of sources such as Microservices, Rest APIs and Soap services. You regularly work in multidisciplinary teams where you work closely together with Front‑end Developers, UX‑ and Visual Designers. You will be guided by an experienced developer who can answer all your questions. You have only learned Java at school, that should not be a problem.

Marketing Intern

Are you a creative thinker with a passion for marketing and big ideas? Looking to kickstart your career in a fast‑paced agency environment? We’re looking for a Marketing Intern to join our team! As our intern, you’ll work directly with our CCO on brainstorming sessions, marketing strategies, and concept development. You’ll also create engaging content for our social media channels and collaborate closely with our designers and Business Development Manager to support various ongoing projects.

Who we’re looking for:

• You’re in your 3rd or final year of your studies;
• Your study program is related to Marketing, Communications, Business, or a similar field;
• You’re available for 20 weeks or longer;
• You have strong communication skills, both written and verbal;
• You’re confident in English (Dutch is a plus!);
• You’re proactive, creative, and eager to learn in a fast‑paced agency environment.

Finance Intern

Behind every great campaign is a rock‑solid financial team. At Assist Digital NL, we believe that creativity thrives on structure and that structure comes from sound financial management. Are you detail‑oriented, analytical, and curious about how numbers drive the success of creative agencies? Then you might be the finance intern we’re looking for! As a Finance Intern, you’ll become an essential part of our finance team. You’ll work closely with our Finance Controller, assisting in day‑to‑day financial operations and gaining hands‑on experience with cash flow, project administration and invoicing. This is your chance to step into the financial heartbeat of a fast‑paced, digitally‑driven agency environment and contribute to the smooth running of a financial administration.

What you’ll do:

• Support daily financial operations such as processing invoices, managing cashflow and keeping all systems aligned.
• Assist in preparing monthly reports and overviews for internal stakeholders.
• Help track client project budgets and contribute to financial forecasting.
• Dive into data to spot patterns, trends, and opportunities for process improvements.
• Get exposure to tools like Excel, Exact Globe, and project management systems.

What we’re looking for:

• You’re in the 3rd or final year of your studies.
• Your study program is related to Finance, Business Economics, Accountancy, or a similar field.
• You’re available for a period of at least 20 weeks (starting date can be discussed).
• You’re curious, accurate, and eager to understand context behind the numbers.
• You have strong communication skills both written and verbal.
• You’re comfortable using Excel and keen to improve your skills.
• You’re confident in English (Dutch is a plus!).
• You’re proactive, independent, and not afraid to bring new ideas to the table.
