Intern Events & Projects Coordinator

The most beautiful city in the Netherlands? That is The Hague and we are proud of it. Our core task? Attracting and retaining residents, visitors, congresses and foreign companies and institutions. This is how we stimulate The Hague's economy and create jobs for residents. We do this by connecting. We connect new companies with The Hague, visitors with the city and event planners with venues. We do this together: with colleagues and with our partners. We are one team and we are committed. We think about what we do, whether it is sustainable and whether it is good for The Hague and the world. We have an open corporate culture in which we unburden each other. One person does that for a colleague, another for a client or partner. We love to inspire and we do so with ‘’Haagse Bluf’’. We come up with new refreshing ideas and, above all, we don't want to color within the lines too much. A team you want to be a part of? We want you to be a part of ours.
