Job description

We are looking for a driven and innovative director who wants to expand the proposition further and is passionate about developing talent and impacting the market.

As Director of MS North Netherlands, you will be the driving force behind increasing awareness of our proposition in the market. You are committed to placing your talent on challenging assignments and coaching them to success. You will also be actively involved in client assignments yourself as a trusted advisor to research client needs and tailor our services accordingly.

As a Director, you will be part of the Public solution, focusing on clients in the (semi-)public sector. Within this sector, we mainly do assignments in operations and execution. Think about translating ambitions and policy into concrete improvements at a core department, municipality, or implementing organisation. In addition, you feel at home in the North and are, at the same time, the connecting factor with our head office in Amsterdam.

But it doesn't stop there. The next step is crucial: building your team. You have the vision and leadership to shape and guide this team to new heights. It is about managing the proposition and creating a culture of innovation, collaboration and growth.

Do you recognise yourself in this challenge? Are you ready to take the next step in your career, and do you feel like building the MS proposition in the Northern Netherlands? We look forward to receiving your application.
