Project Manager

As a Project & Account Manager at KRU, you're responsible for connecting your client portfolio with our team members. You build strong client relationships, turn their needs into concrete actions, create great teams, and contribute to KRU's growth.

What will you do?

• You'll manage and strengthen existing client relationships. For your own client portfolio, you're the face of KRU and the first point of contact for all requests.
• You'll think along with clients, spot opportunities to strengthen partnerships, and turn them into concrete actions.
• With your people skills, you'll make the right match between clients and team members, making sure all shifts are covered.
• You'll make sure team members are fully briefed before their shifts and that everything runs smoothly from A to Z.
• You'll work closely with other Project Managers and teams such as Recruitment and Finance to meet deadlines.
• You'll manage margins and budgets, keeping both the client's and KRU's interests in mind.
• You'll prepare reports on staffing performance during bookings and turn results into improvements and increased client satisfaction.
• For larger bookings, you'll be on-site to coordinate the start of an event or lead a team as a Production Manager.
• You'll actively contribute to KRU's growth. Think new business opportunities, operational improvements, marketing initiatives, and other opportunities you spot along the way.

Since our team members also work at events during weekends, you'll cover an average of one weekend shift per month. This shift is remote: you'll handle team check-ins and remain available if anything comes up during a booking. After your weekend shift, you'll have Monday and Tuesday off.

This is who you are

• You preferably have 2+ years of experience in a project or account management role.
• You're social and a strong communicator, both professionally and personally.
• You're proactive and have a strong sense of responsibility.
• You're able to manage multiple long-term clients and individual projects at the same time.
• You're a true people person who gets energy from working with people.
• You take ownership and don't wait for someone to tell you what needs to be done.
• You're solution-oriented and can quickly adapt when plans change.
• You have strong negotiation and influencing skills, or you're eager to develop them further.
• You preferably have a driver's licence and live in Amsterdam.
• You're a native Dutch speaker and fluent in English.

This is what you get

• A competitive starting salary based on your experience, with opportunities to grow quickly.
• A young, ambitious, and entrepreneurial agency with plenty of room for your own ideas.
• Fresh lunch provided by KRU every day.
• Access to events and regular team outings.
• A great workspace at our office on the Keizersgracht in Amsterdam.
• 8 remote working days per year, in addition to our standard remote Mondays.
• A close-knit team that's hard to find anywhere else.
• An Apple laptop and phone.
• 25 vacation days based on a 40-hour workweek.
