International Team Support Assistant

Amsterdam

For support professionals who thrive in dynamic environments and enjoy bringing structure to complexity, this is an opportunity to join an organisation during a defining stage of its growth. Some support roles are about keeping things organised. This role is about helping an organisation scale.


We are looking for a Team Support Assistant for a rapidly expanding international organisation headquartered in Amsterdam. With colleagues across multiple European countries, the company combines entrepreneurial drive with a long-term vision and a strong focus on building something meaningful. The team remains agile, decision-making is fast, and individuals are trusted to take ownership from day one. As a result, your contribution will be visible, valued and felt across the organisation.

Over de functie

Working closely with the Executive Assistant to the founders, you will support colleagues throughout Europe on a broad range of operational, administrative and organisational initiatives. From coordinating international travel and managing complex schedules to supporting events, improving ways of working and helping the organisation scale effectively, you will play a key role in enabling both people and the business to perform at their best.

As Team Support Assistant, you will help ensure that the wider team can operate efficiently and focus on the organisation's core objectives.

Your responsibilities include:

  • Supporting the Executive Assistant with day-to-day administrative and operational tasks;
  • Coordinating complex meetings across multiple countries and time zones;
  • Organising travel arrangements and logistics for colleagues across Europe;
  • Supporting the organisation's growth by coordinating office-related projects, including the identification and implementation of new office locations across Europe;
  • Organising team off-sites, conferences and internal events;
  • Managing office supplies, company merchandise and business materials;
  • Assisting with the preparation of presentations and supporting documentation;
  • Tracking actions arising from meetings and following up on agreed next steps;
  • Supporting communication and coordination across the wider international team;
  • Helping improve processes and administrative workflows as the organisation grows;
  • Handling a variety of operational and ad hoc requests as required.

Het bedrijf

This organisation is building an international platform focused on strengthening and developing specialised industrial businesses across Europe. Operating at the intersection of investment, technology and operations, the organisation partners with companies that fulfil critical roles within industrial value chains and broader economic infrastructure.

The culture is ambitious, collaborative and grounded in execution. People are encouraged to think beyond their immediate responsibilities, contribute ideas and take ownership of outcomes. Success is driven by capable individuals who combine initiative with sound judgement and a willingness to support the wider team. While expectations are high, the environment is straightforward, approachable and focused on creating long-term value rather than short-term results.

With offices and colleagues across Europe, it combines international reach with the energy, pace and opportunities typically associated with a business entering its next phase of growth.
