Meet & Greet bij NWO op donderdag 15 juni

Heb jij een passie voor de wetenschap? Wil je graag een actieve bijdrage leveren aan de versterking van het wetenschappelijk onderzoek en de impact daarvan op de maatschappij? Dat kan als programma coördinator, als financial, IT'er of in een andere functie binnen onze organisatie. Je bent van harte welkom. Onze eerstvolgende Meet & Greet is op donderdag 15 juni.

NWO is dé nationale wetenschapsfinancier en vervult als verbinder een brugfunctie tussen onderzoek en samenleving. Werken bij NWO is heel divers. Voor een programmacoördinator bijvoorbeeld varieert dat van het schrijven van een call tot het bijdragen aan de toepassing van wetenschappelijk onderzoek. Als financial adviseer en ondersteun je de interne organisatie professioneel en klantgericht bij financiële vraagstukken. Als IT'er draag je bij aan de digitale transitie van NWO waarbij we een volledig nieuw digitaal fundament gaan realiseren en de Agile werkwijze binnen de IT-afdeling adopteren.

Bevlogen collega’s

Het belangrijkste in ons werk is het bevorderen van onderzoek en het vergroten van wetenschappelijke en maatschappelijke impact. Dat valt en staat natuurlijk met de inzet, kwaliteit, bevlogenheid en diversiteit van onze medewerkers. We zijn trots dat we in een inclusieve omgeving werken waarin alle medewerkers hun talenten kunnen ontwikkelen; op welk gebied dan ook!

Werken bij NWO betekent werken in een omgeving waarin iedereen een passie heeft voor wetenschap. Via bijeenkomsten, georganiseerde lunches of borrels blijven we op de hoogte van elkaars werk en zoeken we de verbinding op.

Zullen we kennismaken?

Lijkt het je leuk om nog meer te weten te komen over het werk bij NWO en om collega’s te ontmoeten? Dan nodigen we je graag uit voor onze Meet & Greet op donderdag 15 juni aanstaande. De Meet & Greet vindt plaats op onze locatie in Utrecht tussen 14.00 en 17.30 uur.
