The posting
Your mission, should you choose to accept:
You won't be working in an ordinary legal department. Our rapid, international expansion and ambitious growth plans mean legal support is always in demand and there's a lot more happening here than the day-to-day legal business you'd expect at a hotel company. There's plenty on everyone's plate, but we never lose our The Social Hub DNA: we combine deep legal experience with an entrepreneurial spirit.
This is a temporary position, providing maternity cover for approximately 6 months, so you'll be stepping straight into an active, hands-on role.
As a member of The Social Hub Legal team, you'll get exposure to everything from working closely with our Legal Counsels on agreements and resolutions to compliance and corporate housekeeping. If you're structured, proactive, and want a front-row seat to legal work inside a fast-growing hospitality brand, we'd love to meet you!
In case you don’t know who we are…
Known for being the rule breakers in hospitality, TSH is a fun, creative and inspiring environment where everyone can work, stay, learn and play and most importantly – be themselves. As an employer we look, act and think like a hotel, but instead we offer a lot more. Think student accommodation, long and short stay options, gyms, talks, events, rooftop bar and eat & drink escapes as well as community and coworking spaces. Located in The Netherlands, Germany, Austria, Italy, France, Spain, Portugal, and the UK, with several new openings on the way, this hybrid hospitality concept may take root in the heart of Europe, but our plans are set for going global.
What You'll Do
- Step in as maternity cover for one of our paralegals for approximately 6 months.
- Support HQ and hotel teams with day-to-day legal issues. From answering questions that roll into our legal inbox to reviewing supplier contracts and guest requests.
- Provide general support to the legal team; researching legal questions, drafting commercial contracts, addenda and NDAs.
- Handle administrative duties such as maintaining Legal SharePoint and our Contract Lifecycle Management system, uploading contracts for signature, assisting with corporate housekeeping (e.g., updating structure charts) and supporting compliance matters (KYC-requests/UBO, etc.).
- Work part-time, either two or three days per week (to be agreed upon hiring, but consistent from week to week).
- You will work at our office in Amsterdam.
What You’ll Have
- A bachelor’s degree in law.
- Work experience as a paralegal, legal assistant, or student assistant/trainee (law firm or corporate).
- A hands-on, structured, commercially minded approach.
- Strong attention to detail and excellent organizational skills.
- Excellent spoken and written business English and native level Dutch. (German, Spanish, French or Italian is a bonus.)
- Eligibility to work in the Netherlands.
- A drive to keep sharpening your project management skills.
- The discretion to manage sensitive and confidential information.
- Great interpersonal skills and the ability to work well independently and as part of a team.
What We Offer
- The opportunity to work at a dynamic, multi-national company. Not just another hotel - we’re a game changing innovator, challenging every convention and defining the future
- The opportunity to work for a Certified B Corp® company that balances profit with positive impact, collaborating with organizations like Movement on the Ground and the TSH Talent Foundation to create meaningful change
- The chance to learn and grow in your role with the potential for future growth
- Awesome discounts in all our properties in Europe and not just for you, but also for your friends and family!
- A wonderful workplace to call home, full of events, fun colleagues and all the other amazing salary/benefits stuff
At The Social Hub, we believe pay should be fair and consistent. That's why we carefully determine your starting salary based on the role, your assessed proficiency, and our salary framework. We make our best and fairest offer upfront, so we don't negotiate salaries. Because fairness shouldn’t depend on who negotiates best.
Who you are, is how we want you to be. To us, hybrid hospitality goes across the board, from how we service our guests to how we represent ourselves. Here, everyone belongs, and we welcome people no matter their nationality, gender, age, sexual orientation, religion or culture. Your authenticity keeps our team diverse. Come as you are.
