Working Student opportunity in Visual Design

We are looking for a passionate and creative Visual Designer Working Student to join the team at our Amsterdam HQ. Your primary focus will be supporting the design team with the design of our weekly newsletters, our social organic/paid campaigns, and campaigns in our app.

You’ll collaborate with a powerhouse Creative team of 20+ diverse specialists, including motion designers, videographers, and copywriters. Together, you’ll create high-impact work that doesn’t just sit in a folder—our campaigns launch weekly across the Netherlands, France, and Germany, reaching millions of screens.

Note: this is not a UX/UI design job.

In a nutshell

This role focuses on visual design support for weekly newsletters, social campaigns, paid campaigns, and in-app campaigns.

Tricks of the trade

• Work closely with other designers in the creative team to build campaigns that engage existing and future customers.
• Create and update email campaigns, social media assets, online ads, and campaign visuals for the app.
• Learn how to adopt an analytical approach to design by testing your designs and optimising operational design work.

Your superpowers

• You are currently pursuing a study in Visual Design, Graphic Design, or similar fields.
• Solid online portfolio showing a keen eye for detail paired with lots of creative flair.
• Expert with Adobe Suite (Photoshop and Illustrator) and Figma.
• Self‑starter with a “roll up your sleeves” attitude.
• Eager to learn in a fast-paced environment.
• Affinity for illustration and experience with animation are a plus, but not a must.
• Fluent in English (Dutch, French, or German are a plus!).

Every expert was once a beginner! You’ll get plenty of opportunities to challenge yourself and grow, including Lunch & Learn sessions and tailored soft skills training.

Make a difference You’ll work in an awesome startup environment with the freedom to drive your own projects and create a visible impact. Our fully electric vehicles and sustainable business model mean you’ll also be contributing to making the world a better place!

Teamwork makes the dream work With more than 80 nationalities across 3 countries, you’ll be part of a diverse company with plenty of cool stuff to get involved with, from board game evenings to after‑work drinks to our company ski trip and more.

Fresh lunch, coffee, and snacks Our offices are equipped with fully‑fledged coffee bars and a kitchen and chefs. They prepare delicious fresh and warm lunches every day so you can keep your energy up.
