Netherlands: Marketing Communication Content Creator

KNCV Tuberculosis Foundation

KNCV Tuberculosis Foundation is a Dutch based international non-profit organization dedicated to the fight against tuberculosis. TB is the most deadly infectious disease in the world, killing 4,000 people every day. We find this unacceptable, because with the right drugs and regimens, TB can be cured.

KNCV Tuberculosis Foundation is an organization of passionate TB professionals, including doctors, researchers, training experts, nurses and epidemiologists. Over the past century we have built up a wealth of knowledge and expertise, initially by successfully controlling TB in the Netherlands. Since the 1970s, we have also shared our knowledge and expertise with the rest of the world. We operate from a central office in The Hague, a regional office in Central Asia and country offices worldwide. KNCV raises funds from private, institutional, corporate, and government donors.

The Communication and Fundraising unit is responsible for strengthening the visibility and coherent image of the organization, contributing to a broad social and financial support for TB control in general and KNCV Tuberculosis Foundation specifically. The unit works closely together with other units and divisions within KNCV in order to translate KNCVs mission into its positioning and communication strategy and fundraising opportunities.

For this team, based at our central office in The Hague, we are looking for a
