Career Center

The number of South African professionals working in the Netherlands continues to grow steadily. The Career Center supports these professionals in taking the next step in their careers, within the Dutch labour market and beyond.

Together with our partners, we guide the entire transition process when moving to a new employer. The transfer of the residence permit and the application of the 30% ruling are essential elements of this process. By carefully guiding these matters, we ensure continuity and minimise risks for both candidate and employer.

Through the Career Center, we connect Dutch organisations with South African professionals who are already based in the Netherlands, have gained relevant experience within Dutch companies and are fully settled. Their practical affairs are in order, they have a good command of the Dutch language, have built a social and professional network and, where applicable, have successfully integrated their families into life in the Netherlands.

What we offer candidates

  • Discretion
  • Long-term career advice
  • Professional support before, during and after a transition

What we offer employers

  • A motivated and fully committed professional
  • Relevant work experience within Dutch organisations
  • Good alignment with Dutch corporate culture
  • No international relocation process required
  • An existing residence permit and application of the 30% ruling already in place

Clarity and confidence

We understand why many South African professionals remain with an employer longer than they would prefer. Uncertainty around residence permits, the 30% ruling, or simply not knowing who to trust often creates unnecessary barriers. We remove these obstacles and provide clarity, reassurance and confidence for both candidate and employer.
