Among the best in the world at what they do25 roles
This tier is about the solution itself. We are fairly confident these organisations are among the best in the world in their field — vetted by GiveWell, Animal Charity Evaluators, Founders Pledge or The Life You Can Save, or listed by 80,000 Hours, Probably Good, EA Opportunities or Animal Advocacy Careers. Somebody else has already judged that what they do works, so we list every role there that is open to someone in the Netherlands, including support and operations work. Expect fierce competition, and expect remote work or a move.

Ways in3 openings
This band is about where it leads. Internships, traineeships and paid programmes — fellowships, residencies, bootcamps — are rarely where you change the most, but they are often how people get into the teams where that happens. An internship with the directorate writing the national AI strategy is how people end up writing it later. Some programmes are held abroad. We list those when they are paid and last six months or less, because then you do not have to move for them.

Roles with leverage, here in the Netherlands1 role
This tier is about leverage. Most of these employers — ministries, regulators, universities, banks — would not say they work on one of the world’s largest problems, and nobody has vetted them as a whole. What we look for is different: roles that let you point more at the problem than your own hours. That might be money, or rules that bind a whole sector, or the work of dozens of other people, or an idea that is free to copy afterwards. A credit analyst at an agricultural lender can matter more than a programme officer at a charity. That judgement is ours, made role by role, and we always write down the reason. Competition here is usually a good deal lighter.
New roles in your inbox
On the first Tuesday of every month: new jobs and programmes from this board, plus events in the next six weeks and the best of the EA Forum.
What do you make of this?
The board is still in beta, so this is exactly the moment to say what you think. A vacancy we have missed, a judgement you do not share, something that does not work — all of it helps.
Want to understand this first?
Start with our free course: about 100 minutes in six short units, at your own pace, with no sign-up. To go further, apply for the EA Fellowship: five weeks of reading and discussion in a small group. Also free, but selective.
