Secretary House

Secretary House is a Dutch company in Breda that recruits assistants, and its whole proposition is summed up in the line assisting the assistants. It speaks directly to the person who keeps everything running in the background, switches gear at speed and sees things coming before they happen, and asks who is looking after them. The site is split between vacatures for candidates and a voor bedrijven route for employers, with the argument that a career spent as the quiet force behind others deserves the spotlight too.

The specialisation is the assistant role itself, filled through werving en selectie for companies looking for the ideal assistant, whether that is a temporary cover or a permanent appointment. Secretary House promises a match that is quick and careful and made with the long term in view. It also runs its own vaste assistant team, which people can join either in loondienst or as a ZZP'er, with the offer of good projects, personal growth and the feeling of making a real difference. For the wider profession it publishes Assistant Insights, a mailing of trends, tips and must know updates sent straight to subscribers, backed by an Insights section on the site.

The company works from Academiesingel 24 in Breda and can be reached on 085 016 47 73 or at [email protected]. It maintains a Werken bij ons section and a team page for people considering joining, publishes its algemene voorwaarden, its privacyverklaring and a page of keurmerken en certificaten, and is active on LinkedIn, Instagram, TikTok and YouTube. Employers and candidates are pointed to the same two doors throughout the site, vind je plek for the assistant and vind je assistant for the business.
