Who we are

OpenUp is ranked number 1 on the LinkedIn Top Startups 2023 list and is rapidly growing. We are expanding our international teams and we are searching for like-minded talent. We are already helping over 1500+ (international) companies and 300.000+ employees, e.g. Rituals, Deloitte, Decathlon, KPMG, and McDonalds.

About the assignment

At OpenUp we are focussing on the preventive care, what means that we don\'t do diagnosis, but we are there for the day-to-day struggles, such as work related problems, relationships issues, self confidence, purpose of life and lots more!

OpenUp is open 6 days a week: for planned video consults and spontaneous consults via video. We guarantee short term availability and accessibility. We believe that that minimises the barriers people experience to work on their mental health and because we know that emotions don\'t do waiting lists.

Together with your client you work towards a goal in a set of 25 minute-sessions. In these online conversations, you are challenged to make that goal as specific as possible and to make an impact: what is the first step someone can take today?

Your work will consist of consultations with a variety of people and requests for help and possible weekly intervision sessions to support you and your personal and professional development. On average, you speak to a client for about 3 to 5 sessions to work on a specific request of help. This can vary, so it is also possible for someone to schedule a one-time appointment or, say, 8 appointments to work on a goal, together with you.

Curious to learn more about who we are and what we do? Let us explain it a bit more in this video!

About you

1. HOW DO YOU PLAN YOUR DAY?

This is what this question poses: When do you focus and start working seriously? What are the hours you work optimally? Are you a night owl? A morning bird?

2. HOW DO YOU USE THE DIFFERENT COMMUNICATION TOOLS IN DIFFERENT SITUATIONS?

When you're working on a remote team, there's no way to chat in the hallway between meetings or catch up on the latest project during an office carpool. Therefore, virtual communication will be absolutely essential to get your work done...

Many people want to work remotely because of the flexibility it allows. You can work anywhere and at any time of the day...

9. HOW DO YOU PREPARE FOR A MEETING AND PREPARE A MEETING? WHAT DO YOU SEE HAPPENING DURING THE MEETING?

Just as communication is essential when working remotely, so is organization. Because you won't have those opportunities in the elevator or a casual conversation in the lunchroom, you should take advantage of the little time you have in a video or phone conference...
