Hi hollandvsa,
I hope other members will be able to help you.
You may want to post an advert in the Netherlands classifieds > job section as well.
I wish you good luck,

Hello
I have not long moved to The Netherlands, having experience in Finance/Administration but I had the same problem finding work without speaking Dutch.
Your wife may have already heard of this agency. They are called the undutchables who specialise in jobs which speaking Dutch is not required (although many ask for speaking more than one language) It is always worth registering with them in person.
Also I took my CV and asked many recruitment agencies around my area if I can register with them. Many said no as I do not speak Dutch, but a handful do have clients where this is not needed. The work was more catering, cleaning, production work but I have now secured employement for now until I can learn to speak Dutch.
Hope this helps!
