Do you dream in campaigns? Do you get excited by the idea that your concepts could reach millions of food lovers—from the canals of Amsterdam to the streets of London and beyond?
At WijnSpijs, we’re on a mission to bring people together through food. Our WijnSpijs Wandelingen in the Netherlands and The Restaurant Tour in the UK are just the beginning. With Germany, Scandinavia, and other European countries in our sights, we’re ready to scale our creative engine—and we’re looking for a Creative Strategist to help lead the charge.
In your first 6–12 months, you’ll:
🌍 Build the creative foundation for our international expansion—starting with NL and the UK, then Germany and Scandinavia.
📈 Significantly increase our creative output of testable ad concepts per week (video and static), making sure our campaigns stay fresh, strategic, and high-performing.
🤝 Launch and grow a network of creators and influencers who live and breathe our brand—from local foodies to travel-savvy content makers.
🎯 Develop winning creative briefs for our content team that align with business goals and performance data.
🧭 Help set the creative direction and tone for a fast-growing company with international ambitions.
🧑💻 You’ll work closely with Thomas, our CMO and co-founder, and his right-hand Wiebe, our media buyer.
💰 A competitive salary range of €55,000 - €65,000 annually, with the potential for more based on your experience and direct impact on our growth targets.
🚀 Direct impact and ownership: This isn't a small cog in a big machine. You will work directly with the CMO to build our creative engine from the ground up and see your work translate into measurable business success.
🏢 A vibrant and collaborative team culture. We value in-person collaboration and like to have you around in our office in Haarlem. Some remote work can be discussed.
💻 The best tools for the job: You'll receive a brand new MacBook and any software you need to bring your creative concepts to life.
🎓 Investment in your growth: A bespoke annual budget for courses, conferences, and books to ensure you stay at the forefront of creative and marketing trends.
🏦 Pension plan facilitation to help you plan for your future.
🎉 Great team perks: Regular team events, company-sponsored lunches, and a kitchen stocked with all the snacks and coffee you need to stay energized.
You're a strategist at mind and a foodie at heart, with an eye for campaigns that work—and a gut for what people want to see. You move fast, think in systems, and enjoy building things that scale. You’ve done this before (3+ years in content or brand strategy), and you’re ready to take on something that’s both ambitious and fun.
If you speak both Dutch and English fluently, live within an hour of Haarlem, and want your creative work to matter—this might be your next adventure.

Stel dat je bij ons komt werken, wat kun je dan verwachten? Bij WijnSpijs heerst er een warme en informele cultuur waar de liefde voor lekker eten en drinken centraal staat. We zijn een klein en hecht team dat pragmatisch en doelgericht werkt om onze missie te verwezenlijken. Ons team is altijd in beweging, voortdurend strevend naar verbetering en innovatie. We geloven dat er altijd ruimte is om onszelf, ons bedrijf en onze producten te verbeteren en leuker te maken.
Hoewel we ambitieus zijn, vergeten we nooit om plezier te hebben in wat we doen. We delen een passie voor culinaire ervaringen en dat zie je terug in ons werk. Kortom, als je van lekker eten en drinken houdt en je wilt werken in een levendige, vooruitstrevende en gezellige omgeving, dan voel je je zeker thuis bij WijnSpijs! We zitten in Haarlem: wij hebben een supertof kantoor aan het Lichtfabriekplein (loopafstand van Haarlem Centrum). Thuiswerken doen we soms, maar iedereen is eigenlijk altijd op kantoor aan het werk. Dat is gezelliger, effectiever en goed voor je! We hebben namelijk allemaal zit/sta-bureau’s en ultra-ergonomische bureaustoelen.
We lunchen elke dag samen (op kosten van WijnSpijs): lekker, gevarieerd en altijd gezond. Bijna altijd. Soms is het krokettendag. Frituur FTW🤘 We snappen dat niet iedereen in Haarlem kan (of wil) wonen, dus voor woon-werkverkeer (en andere zakelijke uitstapjes) krijg je van ons een NS Business Card. Reiskosten worden voor fulltimers 100% vergoed als je binnen de driehoek Alkmaar-Amsterdam-Leiden woont.
Je salaris is afhankelijk van je functie, je ervaring en je voorkeuren. Sommige mensen hebben bijvoorbeeld liever wat meer vrije tijd, anderen geven de voorkeur aan salaris. Een arbeidsovereenkomst is maatwerk vinden wij.
