Community Specialist — Amsterdam & The Netherlands

As the world leader in home swapping, we believe there is a different way to travel. With over 550,000 homes in 187 countries, we foster a community based on trust and hospitality. We are looking for a versatile, "people-person" freelancer to grow and engage with our Dutch members and prospects through both digital and local community initiatives

Your Responsibilities

As our "Regional Guide" for Amsterdam and The Netherlands, you will act as the bridge between our global platform and the local community. Your mission includes:

• Regional Growth & Onboarding: Act as the first point of contact for new members. This includes introducing yourself, hosting onboarding sessions for "newbies," and sharing local promotions to encourage their first exchange.

• Event Strategy & Presence: Identify and propose local events or sponsorships (e.g., sustainable travel fairs, lifestyle workshops) that align with our values. You will attend 1–2 key events per month as our official brand representative.

• Community Animation: 

• Offline: Autonomously plan and execute small-scale member gatherings and meetups.

• Online: Moderate and animate local WhatsApp groups and participate in relevant Facebook/Social groups to share the way of life.

• Content & PR Support: Create local content (photos/stories) from events and support our PR team with "Public Affairs" actions or media opportunities in the region.

• Ambassador Management: Identify and recruit engaged members to become brand Ambassadors and collaborate with them to scale your impact.

Desired Profile

• Natural Connector: You are an extrovert who loves networking, social gatherings, and building relationships. You are comfortable being the "face" of a brand.

• Project Management Skills: You are organized and autonomous, capable of taking a project (like a meetup) from an idea to full execution.

• Digital Native: You are highly comfortable with WhatsApp, social media groups, and modern web tools.

• HomeExchange Enthusiast: You understand the magic of home swapping. Being an active member of the platform is a massive plus!

• Proactive & Creative: You don't just wait for instructions; you have a vision for where HomeExchange should be present in your area.

Conditions

• Status: Freelance contract.

• Volume: Approximately 10 hours/week (Note: Some weeks may be busier due to events, balanced by quieter weeks).

• Flexibility: Flexible hours, though some weekend/evening availability for events is required.

• Start Date: June 2026.

You will be part of a global movement toward more human, sustainable travel. This is a unique opportunity to build a local community from the ground up while working with an international, mission-driven team.
