Your route

Three routes, you choose.

Are you looking for flexible work or for a permanent job? We offer both, and we think along with you about which route fits.

01

Flexible work

Through NewData Student you work on assignment at organisations across the Netherlands, alongside your studies or at the start of your career.

03

Experienced assignments

Through NewData Squad you work as an experienced specialist on complex questions.

How it works

What do you learn, and where do you end up?

What you learn

You work with real data from real organisations, with guidance from NewData. You build a portfolio and grow towards heavier assignments or a permanent job.

What kind of organisations

From hospitals and public organisations to financial and business service providers: the client stories show where the work happens.

What an assignment looks like

You are put forward for an assignment that matches your level, you get to work at the client and the agreements are on paper. If it suits both sides, the assignment can grow into a permanent job through DetaVast.

Roles

Which roles does NewData fill?

The roles run from analysis and engineering to AI and development.

Your employment

Who employs you, and what do you earn?

When you work through NewData on an assignment, Servorg Uitzendbureau B.V. is the executing party behind your contract (Chamber of Commerce 27144722, as of 12 August 2026). Servorg is a member of the NBBU and SNA-registered, which means a periodic NEN 4400-1 audit takes place, among other things on the remittance of payroll taxes. All registrations are on the procurement page with all registrations.

Your pay follows the client’s remuneration scheme: the scheme that also applies to comparable positions there. The rate the client pays NewData is separate from that and is published openly on the site.

When an assignment ends, NewData looks with you at the next one. Your data is only kept for that if you give consent yourself, until 24 months after the mediation ends.

What you earn

What do you earn at NewData?

Gross per hour, including holiday allowance and the reservation for holiday days (rates of August 2026).

WhoGross per hour
Student, first year at NewData€ 22.12 gross
Starter, first year at NewData€ 23.39 gross
Student from the second year€ 23.39 gross, the starter level
Medior and senioragreed individually, depending on experience, role and assignment

Gross per hour, including holiday allowance and the reservation for holiday days (rates of August 2026). What the client pays per hour is not what you earn, and that is not a trick: on top of your bare gross hourly wage, almost the same amount is added before we have earned anything.

Support

How are you supported during an assignment?

You start at a client, with a fixed point of contact at NewData behind you. If something gets stuck, you call us, not the client.

You always hear upfront what you get on a specific assignment. Never afterwards, and never different from what was agreed.

In depth

How do you go from temporary to permanent?

Many professionals start with a temporary assignment and grow into a permanent contract. With DetaVast that is the agreement from day one: after the agreed number of hours, the client takes you over cost-free, with no takeover fee (rule of August 2026). Read how DetaVast works.

The shortest track is 1,200 hours, roughly seven months full-time (tracks of August 2026). Want to see what is open right now? Look at the vacancies currently open or start with registering as a professional.

As a student you earn € 22.12 gross per hour in the first year and as a starter € 23.39; a student moves to the starter level of € 23.39 from the second year (rates of August 2026). The amounts include holiday allowance and the reservation for holiday days. For medior and senior the wage is agreed individually, depending on experience, role and assignment.

How do I find data work without years of experience?

By starting with assignments that match your level. NewData Student places students, starters and young data talent with organisations, alongside your studies or as a first step after graduating. You do paid work, build a portfolio and grow towards heavier assignments or a permanent job.

Can a temporary assignment become a permanent job?

Yes. With DetaVast, the client takes you over cost-free after an agreed number of hours worked; the shortest track is 1,200 hours, roughly seven months full-time (tracks of August 2026). That is how it went for the data student at Robeco, who joined Robeco directly after graduating.

What kind of data work can I do as a student or starter?

NewData fills six roles: data analyst, data engineer, data scientist, BI specialist, AI specialist and developer (August 2026). Which role fits you depends on your studies and on what you enjoy: analysing, building or advising. The roles page describes the work per role. And this is not a closed list: as a specialist in data and AI, all kinds of roles come along. Is your role not listed, feel free to get in touch.
