Vacature Office manager / Assistent business director

De Warme Winkel is looking for an Office Manager/Assistant Business Manager

De Warme Winkel is widely praised as one of the most exciting theatre companies in the Netherlands. We create productions for both small and large venues, on location and abroad, and regularly make headlines with exciting promotions and projects. For example, during the first lockdown, we created the COVID-safe theatre Peepshow Palace, co-founded 'Theaterbroedplaats De Sloot' with theatre collective BOG.,, where countless theatre makers work and reside, changed our name to Toneelgroep Amsterdam (and back again), and made headlines with our performance Het Zomeroffer in the Amsterdamse Bos, in which a car belonging to a member of the audience was sacrificed each evening. Currently, our productions are Villa Europa , R2D2_OR_NOT_2B2, and Gundhi .

De Warme Winkel is like an accordion: sometimes we operate as a smaller organization with a compact core, other times as a large organization with various projects, co-producers and a broad team of employees.

De Warme Winkel may be a slightly smaller company due to the loss of our structural subsidy from the Performing Arts Fund in January 2025, but we've found our way back up, and with more targeted choices, we continue to make an impact on the (theatre) world. Thanks to structural support from the AFK, thanks to several private funds, contributions from a giving circle, and national and international co-producers, we've forged a new plan for the future. We want to retain our audience and continue our artistic growth to make our return to the Performing Arts Fund in the next arts plan inevitable. Your appointment will help us chart a course toward a stronger future.

The start date for the position is April 1st.

Our team currently consists of two artistic directors and a business director, a junior marketer, a head of marketing, an artistic planner and coordinator, and a technical producer. In addition, a pool of (returning) freelance actors, creatives, production managers, and technicians is involved with the company.

What is expected of you?

In this dual role, you'll be the mainstay of De Warme Winkel's office and the right hand of our business manager. You'll have several regular administrative responsibilities, such as managing our email inbox, checking and recording invoices and expense claims, sending payment reminders, tracking ticket sales figures, and booking travel and accommodations in consultation with our artistic planner. You'll also support the business manager with the sales of De Warme Winkel's performances, drafting theater contracts, entering tickets sales statements, and preparing and sending sales invoices. You'll also assist with grant applications.

• Salary according to the Collective Labor Agreement for Theater & Dance (CAO Toneel en Dans), scale V, depending on experience: minimum €3,075 and maximum €3,253 gross per month based on a full-time employment contract

Please send your cover letter and resume to by Friday, March 6th. The first round of interviews will take place on Wednesday, March 11th.

De Warme Winkel believes the performing arts is a place where stories challenge the accepted narratives of society. We challenge our own perceptions and question not just what we do but how we do it. This is done through curiosity as well as through the cross pollination of a wide range of collaborators and contributors. In artistic work we seek to bring in life experiences that don't reinforce homogeny, for example co-creating a performance with reality show contestants, Vincent and Princess Bangura attempting to understand the work of Wardsworth on stage and now co-creating with the more than human, with a robot version of Hamlet.

We therefore strongly encourage applications from people of diverse backgrounds, experiences, ages and gender identities.
