Apply to be an RSM ambassador

• You must be an enrolled RSM Master or Premaster student in September 2026.
  • Note: If you are joining the MSc International Management-CEMS programme, you can still apply for this position. For example, if your exchange is in the fall, you can apply for the ambassador position for the spring semester.
• You are available for the entire academic year 2026-2027.
• You are responsible and reliable when you carry out your tasks.
• You are willing to respond to short-notice requests such as campus tours.
• You respond quickly to e-mails and are well-organized.
• You are willing to prioritize Ambassador work over other extracurricular activities/side-jobs that you undertake.
• You are willing to communicate with prospective students via WhatsApp and our digital peer-to-peer platform, Unibuddy. This means you may have to spend approximately 15 min a day on Unibuddy, even during a busy period.
• You are enthusiastic about your programme.
• You are not shy in approaching prospective students to offer them information at the open days.
• You have no problem speaking to large groups of people and holding presentations.
• Since we need to arrange a contract for you, you must be in the possession of a Burgerservicenummer (BSN) for the entire year 2026-2027 (which means registering your address with the municipality) and you must acquire a Dutch basic health insurance* which is required by Dutch law if you have a working contract. You have to make the arrangements for the insurance yourself.

*Please note that there is a subsidy to help you cover the costs of your health insurance, but you must be living in the Netherlands when your contract starts in order to apply for it.

• Webinar presentations in January 2027 and on an ad hoc basis
• Peer-support-programme (PSP) for accepted students: Approx. 2 hours per week from November 2026 to August 2027 (mainly on WhatsApp)
• Other recruitment activities such as newsletter articles, webinars, etc. (on request)

You will be given a work contract through EURFlex* and will be paid on an hourly basis. Hours to be worked** will vary (on average 1-5 per week, occasionally 8, can be more if you sign-up for ad-hoc activities). Non-EEA students can be given a work permit and are encouraged to apply!

*For internal students coming from RSM or other EUR faculties, you cannot have more than three consecutive EURFlex contracts. If you have had three consecutive contracts please contact eurflex@eur.nl to check if it will be possible for you to get a contract for your ambassador work starting September 2026.

**Please note, we cannot guarantee 8 hours a week and mostly it will be less thus this position does NOT make you eligible for DUO as an EEA student. However, with this role you do have the flexibility to combine it with something else if you are an EEA student.
