Among the best in the world at what they do24 roles
This tier is about the solution itself. We are fairly confident these organisations are among the best in the world in their field — vetted by GiveWell, Animal Charity Evaluators, Founders Pledge or The Life You Can Save, or featured by 80,000 Hours. Somebody else has already judged that what they do works, so we list every role there that is open to someone in the Netherlands, including support and operations work. Expect fierce competition, and expect remote work or a move.

What do you make of this?
The board is still in beta, so this is exactly the moment to say what you think. A vacancy we have missed, a judgement you do not share, something that does not work — all of it helps.
Curious?
If you want to know how we arrive at this list, we run a short intro course and a newsletter. Neither costs anything.
