Administrative assistant who automates everything

Half your week is administration. The other half you automate that administration away.


Invoices, time registration, work orders and bank transactions: that work is yours, and it keeps running. Alongside that, you automate it. Do something by hand twice and the third time you turn it into a script, an agent or a link between two systems. You work with a small team of entrepreneurs with a serious passion for AI and automation. We are building the company of the future ourselves. Will you build it with us?

//A week at First Case

Do it, record it, automate it.

The split is not fixed. One week the administration is ahead, the next week your automation is.

The work keeps running, including on the day your script breaks.

Monday
Invoices & bank

Purchase and sales invoices, bank transactions, supplier portals. Simply getting it done, and noting along the way what you are doing for the third time.

Tuesday
Hours & work orders

Bringing six parallel time registrations back to something an engineer fills in on a phone. You start with the one that goes wrong most often.

Wednesday
Automating

A day on your own tooling. You take one retyping step and automate it, with the checks built in right away.

Thursday
In the corridor

Updating project files and talking to engineers and planning. Half of what you solve you hear here, not in a ticket.

Friday
Testing with gloves on

Taking what you built into the cold corridor: does it work on a phone, with gloves on? If not, it is not finished.

//The requirements

What you bring, what you get

What you bring

  • You have built something that actually runs, and you can show it
  • Your administration is in order: an invoice with the wrong VAT is not a learning moment
  • You know where a language model goes wrong and you build in the checks right away
  • You can explain what you build to people who are not systems people
  • The rest you learn here, and we do not look at diplomas
  • The right to work in the Netherlands (no visa sponsorship)

What we offer

  • Decisions within hours: no IT department saying no, no change advisory board, no steering committee where you get to have a say
  • Budget for API credits, licences, models and a machine that can handle it
  • Carte blanche in your toolbox: Claude Code, MCP, TypeScript and Postgres are on the table, what you add is your call
  • A voice that weighs heavily in which systems we buy: ERP, planning, time registration, accounting
  • 24 to 40 hours, employed or on invoice, by arrangement
//What you'll earn

Paid for what you bring

€3.900 to €4.400 gross per month at 40 hours, depending on what you bring. If you would rather work on invoice, we will talk about an hourly rate. Below 40 hours we calculate pro rata.

//The standard
“

A data center runs because everything in it is measured, logged and automated. That is exactly what we want from our own administration.

First Case · on this role
//Applying

In a few clear steps

01

Send a link

To something you built: a repo, a workflow, a bot that does something silly but useful. Also fine: three lines on what you would tackle here in your first week.

02

Name one process

One administrative process you have automated or would like to automate, and why that one.

03

Come and watch for two days

See the administration as it runs today, folders and forms included. After that you know what you are taking on.

★ Trial
04

A good feeling on both sides?

Then we make it official. Employed or on invoice, we decide that together.

New · Trial

First, come and watch for two days.

Talking about 26 retyping steps is one thing. Seeing them is another. Come and sit at the office for two days, open the project folders, follow an order from arrival to invoice and talk to the engineers you will be building for. After that you will know whether this is your kind of mess, and we will know whether you clear it up. Coming along is voluntary, and we cover your travel costs.

  • Two days at the office, your costs covered
  • You see the real folders, not a polished demo
  • No obligation, but an honest picture
//The team

Short lines of communication. No meeting culture.

Since 2004 First Case has been the specialist for critical power infrastructure in data centers. Our engineers install and maintain UPS and battery systems in the places where the lights must not go out. This is a role among those people: you have to know them to be able to change their work. What you build has to work on a phone, with gloves on, in a cold corridor. Our engineers are not systems people and are not going to become them.
