Job description

The Advisor Internal Communication and Further Development DGB connects communication, organizational development, and learning & development, working closely with the Head of the DGB Academy, colleagues from the DGB Cabinet, internal directorates, and other relevant stakeholders within the Ministry of Defence. It is a pivotal role that requires creativity, proactivity, action-orientation, and at times, perseverance. It is important that you can translate needs from the directorates or the (P)DG into concrete plans and ideas and implement them. Within the role, four main themes can be distinguished: Communication: you are responsible for strengthening the internal visibility and recognizability of the DGB, the directors, internal directorates, and subjects. You will ensure clear, accessible, and timely communication about developments, activities, and results within the DGB. DGB Academy: you will support the DGB Academy in developing, organizing, evaluating, and further improving activities focused on learning, development, and professional expertise within the DGB. In this role, you will also contribute to broader developments in this area within the Staff of the Ministry of Defence. Think of onboarding, selecting and organizing training courses and programs. Organizing events: you will organize events on your own initiative and support requested meetings and events that contribute to knowledge sharing, collaboration, visibility, and togetherness within the DGB. Examples include lunch lectures or work visits, the annual DGB outing, and the quarterly employee meeting. Further Development DGB Processes: you will contribute to the improvement and future-proofing of processes within the DGB, thereby strengthening the integrity of policy and advice.

Other employment conditions

The Ministry of Defence strongly values personal growth and career development and offers numerous opportunities for this. In addition to your salary, you will receive an Individual Choice Budget (IKB). The IKB consists of money (16.33% of your gross annual salary) and time. With the IKB, you make choices that suit you and can compose a part of your employment conditions yourself. For example, you can choose to have a portion of your monthly income paid out when you wish. You can also convert this budget into leave or spend it on tax-friendly goals.

We also believe it is important that you can combine working at Defence with your private life. Various leave arrangements (e.g., 75% paid parental leave) and flexible working hours contribute to a good balance. It is also possible to (temporarily) reduce your working hours by a few hours per week and build up extra IKB hours. In addition to a pension scheme with ABP, you will receive a monthly commuting allowance or, under favorable conditions, you can opt for a public transport subscription with unlimited travel throughout the Netherlands. If you only use the public transport subscription for commuting, you do not have to pay any contribution for it.
