4 - Account

1. Would you like to post a vacancy via Greenjobs.nl? Then you will first need to create an account. Candidates can also create an account, but this is not a requirement (they can also respond to a vacancy without an account). Greenjobs.nl has the right (at its own discretion) to refuse accounts without reason.

2. You are responsible for (the accuracy of) your account information.

3. In order to create an account, you must meet at least the following requirements:

  • You are at least 18 years old;
  • You can be reached by email;
  • You have provided Greenjobs.nl with accurate and complete information;
  • You agree to comply at all times with these terms and conditions and all relevant applicable laws and

Make sure that you maintain the confidentiality of your login details, keep your password safe and secure your connection. Is someone using your account or do you suspect this? Please contact Greenjobs.nl immediately.

5. A candidate may only create an account using its own name. Employers may only create an account using their own company name or the name of the company that the employer is representing. It is explicitly not allowed to create an account under someone’s else’s name or to pretend to be someone else (‘fake profile’).

6. As a candidate, you’re not allowed to let someone else use your account. Transfer of the account is prohibited.

7. It can be useful as an employer to add multiple users to the same account. The employer is fully responsible for everything that happens under its account, and therefore also for the actions of other users of its account. The employer represents and warrants that it will only invite users, if the employer is authorized to do so and if it is allowed to share the data contained in its account with this other user. Unauthorized users (or users that are no longer authorized) should be removed immediately by the employer.

9. Greenjobs.nl has no obligation to retain any data or materials received or developed by Greenjobs.nl (such as vacancies, job applications, resumes and social media advertisements), nor is Greenjobs.nl required to return such data or materials after deletion of the account. For more information on the removal of personal information, please read Greenjobs.nl privacy and cookie policy.

10. If there is a problem with your account, please let Greenjobs.nl know by sending an email to info@greenjobs.nl.

11. Greenjobs.nl reserves the right to close accounts without reason and without prior notice. In any case, your account will be closed if:

  • you are not (or no longer) authorized to use an account.

12. Greenjobs.nl may, but is not obligated to, provide support in using the account.

13. Please be aware that you are solely responsible for the accuracy of the (contact) information in your account.

5 - Posting a vacancy

1. Please note that an employer must post the vacancy through its own account.

2. The employer is fully responsible for delivering the relevant content (such as the vacancy text, contact details, etc.). The employer should be aware of the fact that Greenjobs.nl may, at its own (creative and technical) discretion, determine or change the content and / or the design of the (posted) vacancies.

3. You understand that Greenjobs.nl does not review the delivered content. As such, the employer is solely responsible for (the content) of the vacancy. In any case, the employer guarantees that:

  • the vacancy is not misleading and refers to a real job opportunity;
  • the vacancy only promotes one single position or project;
  • the vacancy does not contain any (hyper)links to the websites of third parties, unless Greenjobs.nl has given its approval;
  • the vacancy does not contain logos, trademarks or names other than those of the employer’s organization (unless the employer has obtained the permission to do so);

  • the content of the vacancy is accurate and up to date;
  • the content of the vacancy is compliant with all applicable laws and regulations;
  • the vacancy does not contain an email address, unless the employer opted for a paid package;

4. Please note that Greenjobs.nl may reject or remove any vacancy, for any or no reason. Greenjobs.nl is not liable for any damages in this regard.

5. Please note that the package or subscription you choose influences the ranking / positioning of your vacancy(s) on the website.

6. If the employer purchases a package or subscription that includes a social media campaign, employer should be aware of the following:

  • Greenjobs.nl determines the design and style of the social media post. Employer has no say in this;
  • The social media post will be shared once on the LinkedIn, Twitter, Facebook and Instagram accounts of Greenjobs.nl;
  • The post will only be shared in the feed of the social media accounts of Greenjobs.nl. Greenjobs.nl does not guarantee that the post will also appear in stories and so on;
  • The social media post will be shared within 7 working days after the vacancy has been posted;
  • After the social media post has been shared on the social media accounts of Greenjobs.nl, employer can no longer adjust the post free of charge;
  • Greenjobs.nl does not guarantee that the social media post will (for a certain period of time) remain ‘at the top’ of the feed of Greenjobs.nl's social media accounts.

7. The above six points are also valid if vacancies from an employer are submitted via an automatic link / connection from a (work-at) site of an employer.

8. A subscription for unlimited job posting has a duration of three, six, nine or twelve months. The employer cannot cancel the subscription he has chosen within the term of the subscription. At the end of the term, the subscription will be tacitly renewed, always for a period of one month, unless the employer terminates the subscription in writing, with due observance of a notice period of one month.

6 - Company page for employers

Greenjobs.nl offers employers an additional opportunity to put their company on the map. With a company page the employer can attract the right talent even better!

  1. The subscription costs for a company page are charged at the beginning of each month. The employer receives an invoice which must be paid within 14 calendar days after the invoice date.
  2. Greenjobs.nl      determines at its own discretion whether the employer meets the requirements for a company page. Greenjobs.nl may refuse to set up a company page, without reason.
  3. The minimum period for the subscription for a company page is six months. It is not possible to terminate the subscription within this minimum period of six months. After expiry of the minimum period, the subscription shall renew automatically for further successive renewal periods of one month each, unless written notice is given by the employer, subject to a one-month notice period.
  4. Greenjobs.nl is entitled to terminate the subscription for a company page at any time, without requiring any notice or notice of default. In such case, Greenjobs.nl shall refund part of the subscription fee, for the period that has not been used, unless the termination is attributable to the employer. Greenjobs.nl will never be liable for any compensation regarding cancellation, dissolution or any other method of termination. Amounts that Greenjobs.nl has already invoiced at the time of dissolution will remain due in full and will become immediately payable upon dissolution.
  5. Greenjobs.nl endeavors to post the company page on its website within 7 days of receiving the completed questionnaire.
  6. Employer is responsible for keeping the information displayed on the employer's company page up-to-date. Employer cannot directly change the information itself on the employer's company page. Employers should contact Greenjobs.nl by sending an email to info@greenjobs.nl to adjust the information.
  7. Employer is responsible for the content of the company page and guarantees that the content does not infringe on the (intellectual property) rights of third parties, and that third party links are not harmful. Employer indemnifies Greenjobs.nl for all claims of third parties in this regard.
  8. Greenjobs.nl will list vacancies that are posted on the website of Greenjobs.nl by the employer, on the employer's company page. However, the employer is solely responsible for posting vacancies on Greenjobs.nl.
