For NIOD Institute for War, Holocaust and Genocide Studies (NIOD), the Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences is seeking an internationally recognised and authoritative humanities and social sciences scholar who takes a wide-ranging approach to science and scholarship and who has an extensive network within and outside the scientific community, a keen eye for diversity and inclusiveness in the broadest sense, and excellent management capabilities.

You will be responsible for the general and day-to-day management of NIOD and as such will bear final responsibility for the institute’s strategic direction and operations, in line with the Academy’s strategy.

You will ensure that NIOD remains a leading international institute where scientific and scholarly talent flourishes. You will identify important developments in research and society, both in the Netherlands and elsewhere, and respond effectively to them.

You will develop a distinct approach to the profile and future development of NIOD as a dynamic, internationally authoritative institute for research, collections and services with added value for the Netherlands.

You will take an innovative approach to the relationship between research and collection, particularly with regard to digitalisation and digital research applications.

You will play an important role in national and international networks and partnerships in the field and promote interdisciplinary cooperation with universities and other Academy and NWO institutes, in part so as to improve access to the collections and the collections themselves.

You will position the institute with bodies that fund research (including the EU and NWO), knowledge institutions, NGOs, government institutions and the business community, and by doing so create new partnerships.

You will devote yourself to fostering science communication and maximising the impact of the institute's research activities on society.

You will be the standard bearer and point of contact in public debate and the media, highlighting the relevance of NIOD's research for current societal themes.

You will represent NIOD both within the Academy (as a member of the Council of Directors) and in national and international bodies, thus promoting the interests of both the institute and the Academy.
