Most large Dutch employers are recognised sponsors. Search the IND recognised sponsors list for any company: its page states whether it is on the register and lists its open jobs.

No. Being on the register means the company is allowed to sponsor a highly skilled migrant permit. Whether a particular role comes with sponsorship is its decision; the relocation badge marks postings that say so themselves.
