Oliver James has been operating in the Netherlands for almost a decade. As we continue to experience rapid growth and expand into new markets, the service we offer and the relationships we develop will always be at the center of everything we do.
In today’s ‘Inside OJ’ blog, we hear from our leadership team in Amsterdam:
- Lisanne van Ameijden, Associate Director
- Reinier Hovius, Associate Director
Together, they share how our recruitment agency supports the Compliance, Risk, Finance, Actuarial, and Financial Services markets in the Netherlands.
How OJ supports businesses with expert recruitment solutions

Finding the right career opportunities in the Netherlands
Every OJ consultant has an in-depth knowledge and well-developed network. This means job seekers have access to the best permanent, contract, and temporary career opportunities across the Netherlands and the rest of the world.
We take the time to fully understand a person’s needs and ambitions. Our goal is to provide supportive guidance so you can achieve your personal and professional goals, regardless of your experience level.
What makes Oliver James different?
Our approach is highly consultative. We focus on needs-based solutions rather than a “one size fits all” strategy. We are passionate about developing long-standing relationships and supporting people throughout every stage of their career.
Within our temporary recruitment focus, we maintain a dedicated Performance Management team. This team provides guidance and support to OJ Professionals, offering a variety of internal and external courses and education. We offer more than just a job; we provide the advice and support needed throughout your chosen career direction.
Specialist market insights from our Amsterdam team
Compliance
“Compliance professionals are in high demand,” says Lisanne van Ameijden. “There is a significant knowledge gap in the market. OJ’s Performance Management team provides tailor-made education to professionals, enabling us to service clients from junior to senior level hires within the 1st and 2nd line of Compliance”.
Finance, Actuarial, and Risk
Reinier Hovius reports a rapid upward trend moving into Q4. “We see a significant increase in regulatory reporting positions due to continuous enhancement of DNB and ECB regulations in the financial sector. In the commercial sector, Financial Control vacancies are increasing due to year-end reporting obligations”.
