Working for Amsterdam means working for the most beautiful city in the world. Think of its rich history, the role Amsterdam plays internationally, and events such as Sail, Gay Pride and King’s Day. Of course everybody wants to visit Amsterdam, or work or live here.
As you can probably imagine, working for Amsterdam is a challenge every day. How do we handle the growing bustle in the inner city? Or the high demand for new homes? Or obesity among young children? At the municipality of Amsterdam we work daily on challenging projects like these.
Good for Amsterdam, good for you
Each field of work, ranging from social affairs, customer and information services to environmental planning and economy, has its own challenges. You have to deal with the interests of many parties, often conflicting. Each day you will be looking for solutions that suit the needs of residents, entrepreneurs and visitors. This can make working for the city difficult sometimes, but it is what characterises the job. We work in an open, active, honest, ethical and fair manner, so that is what we would expect from you as well.

Samen met alle gemeenten staat de VNG voor kracht en kwaliteit van het lokaal bestuur. Samen met u dus. De VNG ondersteunt gemeenten bij hun verdere ontwikkeling tot eerste overheid, de overheid die het dichtst bij burgers en bedrijven staat. Het lokaal bestuur bepaalt de VNG-agenda.
De VNG is een dienstverlenende organisatie en biedt een platform voor opinievorming en vernieuwing. De VNG is bovendien dé belangenbehartiger van alle gemeenten en dus een belangrijke gesprekspartner voor andere overheden en maatschappelijke organisaties.
