Why Greenjobs.nl is a free to use job board
"I've had quite a few questions lately about why I offer Greenjobs.nl for free." This is a question that comes up often, and it's good to explain it again, says Annemiek, owner of Greenjobs.nl. The answer is actually very simple: I took over job board Greenjobs.nl from a strong mission to accelerate the transition to a more sustainable world. A crucial part of that is connecting people with jobs that have a positive impact. That's why Greenjobs.nl is a free to use job board.
The goal: the largest possible range of sustainable jobs
The goal of this job board is to offer everyone who is looking for a job with a positive impact the largest range of relevant vacancies. The more people find a sustainable job through the jobs online at Greenjobs.nl, the greater the collective impact on our planet and society. To achieve this, it is essential that as many organizations as possible place their sustainable jobs on Greenjobs.nl. Whether it concerns large multinationals, small startups, government agencies or non-profit organizations, every sustainable vacancy contributes to the bigger picture. That is why posting vacancies on this vacancy bank is free.
Free job posting: low threshold for all organizations
Offering free job posting is a conscious choice to keep the threshold as low as possible. We want all organizations that are committed to sustainability to have the opportunity to share their jobs on Greenjobs.nl, regardless of their budget. This is especially important for smaller organizations, startups and non-profits that often have limited resources. By offering free job posting on Greenjobs.nl, they too can effectively distribute their jobs and reach the right candidates for their positions.
Boosting your jobs: extra visibility and faster results
Although posting jobs on Greenjobs.nl is free to use, it is important to emphasize that boosting your jobs offers significant benefits. A boost, in the form of a Premium or Premium Social package for your jobs, ensures that your jobs gets more views, appears higher in the search results of the job list, stays online longer and is included in the newsletter. With a Premium Social package for your jobs, the job is even promoted via social media, which significantly increases the reach. This extra visibility is especially valuable in a competitive labor market and helps you to find the perfect candidate for your jobs more quickly.
Greenjobs.nl: a B Corp with a social mission
It is important to know that Greenjobs.nl is not a foundation and does not receive external subsidies or donations. We are a commercial organization with a strong social mission. In order to continue to realize this mission and to maintain and further develop the job board, we depend on the income from the paid boost options for jobs. This income enables us to keep Greenjobs.nl freely accessible as a job board for organizations with limited budgets and at the same time offer a qualitative platform for all job seekers and employers in the sustainable sector. In short, the free option for jobs is there to help everyone with Greenjobs.nl, but a boost is an investment in faster and more effective recruitment of top talent for your jobs.
Furthermore, Greenjobs.nl is a B Corp. This means that, in addition to making a profit, we also demonstrably commit ourselves to social and ecological impact. A B Corp, or Benefit Corporation, is a company that meets high standards in the field of social and environmental performance, transparency and responsibility. The 'B' stands for 'Benefit for All', which means that we not only create value for shareholders, but for all stakeholders: employees, customers, the community and the planet.
