SOCIAL MEDIA MANAGER

FanClub Centrum is an online platform that creates videos and stories about Amsterdam’s city center. With the city’s 750th anniversary approaching, sharing these wonderful stories on behalf of the foundation is of great importance. From the baker who has been on the Nieuwendijk for years to the influencer making the city’s best sandwiches, they all share a deep love for this beautiful, historic city. As the social media manager, my role is to coordinate content across the right channels and ensure everything is published correctly. I write copy—covering topics like the city's history, for instance—and create visuals using InDesign and Photoshop to share online.

My responsibilities extend beyond social media management to include the website and newsletter support. As a gift to the city, we also organize monthly events; I am involved in their production and manage the guest list on the day itself. What do I value most about this work? That it teaches me to view everyday things—like old buildings—from a different perspective, and that stories always take center stage.
