Why work in the Netherlands as a couple?
There are various reasons why couples should consider relocating to the Netherlands. The English-friendly culture doesn’t necessarily mean that you have to speak Dutch from the get-go and the great wages and high-quality of life enables you to live a life you’ve always dreamed of.
Moving to the Netherlands as a Couple: Accommodation Provided
All of our shared job applications in the Netherlands come with secured housing. The accommodation is provided by the employer, which means that couples can’t choose the type of housing they get. However, in most cases, they will be able to live in holiday homes, chalets, hotels, or mobile homes. If the couple is dissatisfied with the provided accommodation, they can look for other options, however, the arrangement provided by the employer is usually less expensive and closer to the job site.
To gather more info, you can always read about your options to educate yourself on prices, commutes and pros, and cons of each accommodation type.
How to Improve Your Career as a Couple in the Netherlands
Be Flexible and Embrace New Situations
Going abroad to work is a life-changing experience so we encourage you to take the first step with an open mind. Be ready for your real-life experiences differing a bit from your expectations, and remember to always focus on the positives and your overarching goals. Abroad work is still an invaluable opportunity to build your character, adapt to new situations, improve your resilience, and to explore and appreciate new cultures, traditions, and languages. The latter enriches your life and prepares you two for even more diverse opportunities.
Revisit Your Language Skills
As the Netherlands is among some of the leading English-speaking countries among non-English natives, we highly recommend revisiting your English knowledge and conversational skills. Dutch is the primary language in the country, but English can be enough to fully experience the culture. English also allows you to better understand your colleagues and supervisors, leading to better work experiences and the possibility of you two making friends. You can also slowly start to pick up Dutch to fully embrace the lifestyle and make even more deeper connections with the country and the people around you. Still we also encourage you to explore English-speaking expat communities in the Netherlands as well.
Show Your Motivation
While the Dutch value work-life balance above all in the workplace, that doesn’t mean that you can’t showcase how motivated you are. You can seek additional work hours and responsibilities to maximise your earnings and to highlight your dedication. The Dutch value initiative highly, whether that’s being meticulous at your current role or learning new skills. Both of you should strive to show a proactive approach by arriving on time, tending promptly to tasks, and keeping your workplace organised and tidy. Even little gestures can go a long way, translating to better wages, work positions, and higher quality of life.
Prepare for a New Life Together
We are among the very few recruitment teams who work with agencies that offer comprehensive job and relocation solutions for couples who want to live and work abroad together. You will be able to share accommodation provided by agencies, which makes getting accustomed to the newfound conditions easier. Embarking on this adventure together, and sharing both the joyous and challenging moments together can bring you closer than before.
Embrace The Dutch Lifestyle
The Dutch value socialising, work-life balance, straightforward communication, and family life above all. Leverage these new conditions to build a life where work, while a serious part of your everyday life, becomes a serious responsibility, and not your primary objective in life. Socialise, mingle, and embrace the country’s cycling culture, either as a hobby or a way of commuting to work. Get ready to refresh both your soul and body in the Netherlands.
Update Your CV
Don’t let technicalities stand between you and your new life together. Make sure that both of your CVs are up-to-date and ready for Dutch employers. While we at Robin focus on the person rather than the resume, many employers in the Netherlands still value a well-documented work history. By doing so, you allow potential employers to best assess your fit for their available vacancies. If any of you are encountering problems with creating your CV, we are more than happy to do it for you, for free.
How to Prepare for Working as a Couple in the Netherlands
Robin supports couples with everything from job matching to setting up a bank account, allowing them to adjust to their new life as quickly as possible. Here are some common questions couples who start working abroad usually have.
1. Can we work at the same company?
Yes. The employment agencies we work with are always on the lookout for shared living arrangements for couples, ideal for those who wish to work and relocate to the Netherlands together.
2. Do we get our own room or shared housing?
While this will mostly depend on the employer and how they arrange accommodation, we will do our best to get you your own separate room even in a shared housing arrangement.Usually, jobs with accommodation for couples take privacy into account.
3. Is transportation to work included?
In most cases, yes. However, this will also highly depend on the arrangements of your future employer. In some cases, you may share rides, drive to work, go on an organised bus, or even commute by bike. The latter lets you fully embrace the Dutch work culture and lifestyle.
4. How long are typical contracts?
This depends on the sector and the type of work you will be doing. Some hotels and farms may require workers for the high-season, while other businesses, such as logistics firms or production companies will require talented people for the long-haul.
5. What happens if one of us doesn’t like the job?
If that’s the case, we can make arrangements and potentially help one of you find another opening that suits their expectations better.You don’t need to worry about getting a lower-paying job. The average salary for couples in the Netherlands is high enough to cover necessary expenses, utilities, while still allowing you to save.
6. Can we choose the city we work in?
You can always filter out our couple-focused vacancies by the cities you want to live in the Netherlands. Most employers will post openings in one or two, often neighboring cities, so if the location is your priority, then we suggest focusing on couple vacancies in those places that require the skill level both of you possess.
7. Are there night shift jobs for couples in the Netherlands?
This will depend on the job you are working and the requirements of the employer. You may be working in different roles that require you to do your jobs in different shifts, however, if both of you are in the same team, it may happen that you will work night shifts together.
8. How quickly can we start?
Depending on the vacancy and your readiness to move, we can have the necessary paperwork ready in days after the employer has accepted your application and proposed an offer.
9. Will we be supported on arrival?
Naturally. We know that starting a new job in a foreign country can be a stressful experience, that’s why we help you get settled in and will be in touch with you while you take the first steps to ensure a smooth start. Upon request, we may also connect you with other couples who already have experience in working in the Netherlands.
10. Is health insurance arranged?
Yes, since healthcare insurance for couples in the Netherlands is mandatory. This means that your future employer will also arrange health insurance policies for the both of you.
11. Can non-EU couples apply?
We primarily accept applications from within the EU, however, you can always reach out to our support team if you have any questions regarding your citizenship, possible legal barriers, and application possibilities.
