Do you want to play a key role in growing the leading algae brand in the Netherlands? At plnktn, we are looking for a strategic and hands-on Head of Operations who can take our operations to the next level. In early 2025, we will expand our scope through international online expansion and entry into Dutch retail. This means you can immediately contribute to high-impact projects.

What will you do?

• Sales forecasting and inventory management: You will develop sales forecasts and ensure strategic inventory management, making sure there is always enough stock. Plnktn is built on a subscription model, so we can never run out of stock.

• Making processes more sustainable: As a young brand, we are constantly looking for ways to make our processes less impactful on the world. For example, we use algae cardboard, research bicycle delivery, and reduce our plastic use. The initial goal here is a 10-20% reduction in plastic pouch usage.

Who are you?

• Minimum of 1 year of experience in a similar operational role, preferably in the food, supplement, or FMCG industry.
• Experience with sales forecasting, planning production processes, and placing purchase orders.

Thom - Founder

Plnktn is offering a talented junior videographer a unique opportunity to contribute full-time to a fast-growing brand and learn the entire creative process: from concept and script to shoot, edit, and performance. For the videographer who wants to grow faster than the rest.

At Plnktn, we're looking for an all-round videographer and editor who not only wants to make beautiful videos but wants to learn how to truly make an impact with their skills. We're growing rapidly. In the Netherlands, and since this year, internationally too. And video storytelling is our driving force. From short-form ads to social content, from founder-led videos to product explainers, and from quick edits to creative test variants for Meta, TikTok, and other channels. That's why we're looking for someone with energy, creativity, and drive. Someone who takes their craft seriously, wants to learn the entire process from concepting to final product and performance iterations, and is eager to develop into an all-round creative. You don't have to be able to do everything yet. But you must be hungry to get better and passionate about our product.

Why this is a great opportunity

As a videographer at Plnktn, you won't be working on "content" in some backroom. You'll be at the heart of the creative team, responsible for funnels, campaigns, ads, and formats that contribute to the brand's growth. You'll learn how to make videos that are not only beautiful but also effective: grabbing attention, building trust, inspiring people, and generating conversions. Depending on your experience, you'll gain increasing responsibility over the entire process: from concept and script to shoot, edit, testing variants, and improving based on performance. Ultimately, you'll gain ownership over your entire product funnel! You'll work with Gijs, our creative director, Victoria, our producer, and Robin, our art director. So you'll receive plenty of creative guidance, but also a lot of freedom to create, experiment, and grow.

What you'll do

• You'll film and edit organic videos and ads from start to finish.
• You'll contribute ideas for concepts, hooks, scripts, formats, and storylines.
• You'll create variants of creatives to test what works.
• You'll work on quick social edits, but also on higher-quality brand content.
• You'll learn how content performs on channels like Meta, TikTok, and Instagram.
• You'll build your own skillset as a videographer, editor, and performance creative every week.

Who we're looking for

• You have at least 1 year of experience as a videographer, editor, or content creative. This can be professional experience, but also from personal projects, freelance work, or extensive self-production.
• You are familiar with tools such as Premiere Pro, After Effects, DaVinci Resolve, Final Cut Pro, or CapCut.
• You have a feel for social content, ads, or short-form video.
• You understand what grabs attention, or are extremely motivated to learn.
• You have energy, ownership, and a desire to create a lot.
• You are available full-time (on-site) and ready to commit completely.

What we offer you

• Guidance from top creatives in film, storytelling, and performance. The opportunity to work for an innovative and sustainable brand with big ambitions and an inspiring team, right in the heart of Amsterdam. In short, a place where you can grow incredibly fast as a videographer.
• Lots of freedom to bring ideas to life. The sooner you master it, the faster you can start running and deploying your own projects!
• Guidance from top creatives in film, storytelling, and performance.
• Salary commensurate with experience.
• Everything you need to work well: MacBook, breakfast and lunch fully provided, and of course, Plnktn products at your disposal.

Apply

Do you have the creativity, energy, and drive to help us build? Send us your CV, motivation, and portfolio (a few videos you're proud of). Even if you don't meet all the requirements, we'd love to hear why you'd be a good fit for Plnktn. We hope to speak soon.

Gijs
Co-Founder

Do you want to contribute hands-on to building the brand that introduces the world to the power of algae during your internship? Do you know exactly what works and doesn't work on social media, and is your phone (or camera) always nearby? Do you also want to learn everything about what's involved in producing online content? From the initial idea to going live on all channels? Then this is the role for you!

What will you do?
You will play a crucial supporting role in our fast-growing company: namely, the entire production process of our social media content. From wild creative ideas to concept, production, post-production, and publication on all channels. Alone or in awesome collaborations with our ambassadors. You will work with us to make the best and craziest ideas a reality and create the highest quality content.

Responsibilities

As an intern with us, you are a full team member and will therefore be involved in all aspects of our daily work! This means a varied task package where every day is different, with the following components, among others.

Concepting

• You will brainstorm and write with us on scripts and storylines for major shoots. Those videos you see online: you will have been a big part of them!
• You will scour social media daily for inspiration and keep us super sharp on what works and doesn't work online.
• You will weekly deliver social-proof ideas and cool angles for our content on our various channels.

Pre-production

• As production chief, you will arrange props, locations, and ensure everything is production-ready.
• You will also support the preparation and briefing of those involved on set.

Production

• Awesome shoot or filming day at the office or on location? You'll be there!
• During productions, you are responsible for the smooth running of the filming day, so that our videographer, photographer, and creative director can fully do their thing!
• This means, for example: arranging logistics and ensuring all props are present.
• Your creativity is also indispensable on set. During shoots, you will create BTS content with your phone, which you will quickly process into a short Reel the next day.

Post-production & Go-Live

• While the editor does their work, you will work with our content manager on the overarching content planning.
• You will ensure that all content from the editor is stored in the correct place and learn from the edits and iterations made.
• Then you will publish the content (stories, reels, substantive posts) and cross-post it on all channels.
• You can also independently create weekly TikTok videos. If you want to pour all your creativity into this and involve the entire team, that's only a good thing!

What do we expect?
At plnktn, we are a close-knit and young team. We all work with great passion and believe that by working together a lot and well, we can truly make the world a bit healthier with algae.

We are looking for a social media & content creation intern who wants to help build this dream 5 days a week at our office in Amsterdam and is ready to get the most out of this internship.

What do we offer you?

• The opportunity to work for an innovative and sustainable brand with sky-high ambitions.
• A creative work environment where your ideas truly count.
• Inspiring team and workplace in Amsterdam city center.
• Internship compensation of €500,- per month.
• Conditions that ensure you can do what you're good at: think breakfast AND lunch provided, plnktn products, and awesome outings.
  

Do you have the vision and belief to produce the best content with us? Send us your CV and a motivation letter explaining why you are the perfect candidate.

We hope to speak soon!
