Where and how you'll work

Most of your work will take place from our Amsterdam office, where you'll collaborate closely with colleagues and contribute to a variety of projects while gaining hands-on experience in a dynamic and international environment. Rewire's Amsterdam office is more than just a workplace, it's a hub for collaboration, innovation, and problem-solving. And because great work happens when people feel connected, we also regularly come together for team events, celebrations, and Friday drinks.

We're aiming for a minimum of 16 hours per week, ideally around 24 hours spread across three days, allowing you to make a meaningful impact while balancing your studies.

While the Amsterdam office will be your primary workspace, occasional work from home is possible in alignment with your team, providing flexibility and supporting a healthy balance between work and study. Discover more about its inspiring atmosphere here.
