A selection of our attractive employment conditions

You receive 232 hours of vacation per year (based on a full-time position), well above the legal minimum of 160 hours. This gives you plenty of time to recharge. You can also swap Good Friday for another religious or cultural holiday of your choice.

You receive 8% holiday allowance and an end-of-year bonus of 8.3% on top of your salary. A nice extra reward in May and November.

Are you relocating to the Netherlands with your partner? You may be eligible for Dual Career Coaching, offering tailored support to help your partner explore employment opportunities.

Are you moving to Nijmegen or the surrounding area for your work at Radboud University? You may be eligible for a relocation allowance.

With the Selection Model, you can customise part of your employment conditions. For example, you can exchange salary, holiday allowance or annual leave for extra vacation days, additional travel allowance, or a bicycle reimbursement. This way, you choose what suits you best.

We believe it’s important to make time for your family. That’s why you can take up to 26 weeks of parental leave, with 70% or 62.5% pay for part of that period. This allows you to combine work and parenthood in a way that suits you.

At Radboud University, you have plenty of opportunities to develop your talents and achieve your ambitions. We cover 50 to 100% of training costs aimed at your career development. Through our online learning platform gROW, you can also explore e-learnings, workshops, trainings, and programs that support your professional growth.

As an employee, you can enjoy significant discounts on Radboud University’s extensive sports and cultural offerings. In addition, you receive a reimbursement of up to €120 a year (on a full-time basis) for art, culture, and sports, which you can use, for example, for a museum pass or sports subscription.

You accrue a pension with ABP. The university pays 70% of your pension contribution, and the remaining 30% is paid from your salary. This contribution covers your old-age pension, survivor’s pension, and incapacity for work pension.

As an employee, you can join Radboud University’s collective health insurance through VGZ. You benefit from additional coverage, including physiotherapy, preventive care, and dental care, so you have reliable coverage at all times.
