Your new job | About your key responsibilities

Are you a driven brand and communication professional with 3 to 6 years of experience who gets energy from working for a strong brand, working on creative campaigns, and engaging sponsorships? Do you have a sense for positioning, activation, and content, and do you know how to carefully translate plans into concrete execution? Then this is a role in which you will work on the visibility and reputation of a leading international brand.

As Project Manager Brand & Sponsoring, you will support our team with campaigns and sponsorship activations. You will help bring ideas from concept to execution and ensure that the EY brand is visible in a distinctive and consistent manner.

You will work on brand campaigns and our sponsorship activities: from creative concepts, content, and events to the activation of our sponsorship programs. In doing so, you will collaborate extensively with colleagues within Brand, Marketing & Communications, creative agencies, and external partners. In this role, you will have plenty of room to take on projects independently, contribute ideas, and further develop yourself.

You will be part of the Brand, Marketing & Communications (BMC) department. Within this multidisciplinary team, you will combine a hands-on mentality with a sense for quality, brand consistency, and collaboration. You will monitor schedules, coordinate with internal and external stakeholders, and ensure that ideas are actually and carefully realized.

• You support the development and execution of brand campaigns and other initiatives that contribute to the positioning, visibility, and reputation of EY Netherlands.
• You support the preparation, coordination, activation, and evaluation of sponsorship programs and events.
• You translate brand, communication, and sponsorship objectives into concrete project plans, briefings, activations, and communication tools.
• You collaborate with creative agencies, production partners, media partners, and other external suppliers, and ensure clear briefings and good guidance during execution.
• You develop and coordinate content and assets for brand campaigns, sponsorships, events, and activations, in close collaboration with internal specialists and external partners.
• You coordinate projects with stakeholders both inside and outside our department.
• You contribute to the evaluation of campaigns and sponsorship activations by collecting results, insights, and learnings and translating them into concrete improvements.
• You follow developments in the fields of branding, sponsorship, media, culture, and social themes, and translate relevant opportunities into ideas for EY.
• You help bring structure to projects, processes, and documentation, and ensure that involved colleagues have access to the right information in a timely manner.

Our office in Rotterdam is our headquarters and is beautifully located on the Maas with a view of the Erasmus Bridge. You can walk straight into the city, and downstairs you will find a cozy coffee bar. On sunny days, colleagues have lunch outside by the water. An inspiring place with an impressive view and a vibrant environment.

• You have 3 to 6 years of relevant work experience in branding, marketing communications, sponsorship, partnerships, campaigns, or events, preferably within an agency environment, professional services, or a corporate organization.
• You have demonstrable experience in coordinating and executing campaigns, activations, partnerships, or brand projects, and you understand how brand positioning is translated into consistent communication, content, campaigns, and experiences.
• You are strong in project management: you work in a structured manner, maintain an overview, and monitor deadlines, budgets, quality, and agreements.
• You are both creative and practical-minded. You enjoy thinking along about concepts, but you also get energy from bringing them carefully to execution.
• You can write clear briefings and effectively guide external agencies, suppliers, and production partners.
• You communicate persuasively and carefully in both Dutch and English.
• You are organizationally sensitive and work easily with different disciplines and stakeholders.
• You take initiative, ask the right questions, and know when you can act independently and when coordination is needed.
• You have an affinity for building brands, sponsorship, culture, sports, media, social themes, and current developments that are relevant to the EY brand.

And all of this within an environment where our core values of integrity, inclusivity, and respect are central. We believe it is important that you can be yourself and that you can fully develop into the best version of yourself. Curious about all our terms and conditions? Click here.
