NO RUT.
ALL GRIND.

Working at Hands 4 Events is no rut, but it is grind. No two days the same, no boss at a distance. Our leads are on the floor themselves, and you stand on shows people pay money to get into.

Work on real productions

Festivals, arenas, TV shows. Sportpaleis, Rock Werchter, Graspop, Studio 100. You are there while it is being built.

Flexible scheduling

Through our own planning tool. You set your availability, we send calls. No obligation, but solid agreements.

Crew that is crew

No temp-agency vibe. Our chiefs know your name, know what you can do and build along.

NO CV HASSLE.
JUST THESE BASICS.

Must-haves
  • 18+ and your paperwork in order (day contract, flexi card, student contract or VAT number)
  • Show up on time. A call is a call.
  • Physical work does not scare you: pushing flight cases, rolling cables, long hours on your feet, a blister on your little toe and stiff muscles the next day
  • Dutch or English, preferably both
  • You can do early, you can do late, you can do nights, and you stay longer when needed
  • You bring your own steel-toe work boots and work clothes. Helmet, gloves and hi-vis are on us where needed
  • You speak up when something feels unsafe. Always
  • You come to work. Want to see the show? Buy a ticket
Nice-to-haves
  • VCA certificate
  • Experience in events, theatre, stage technology or logistics
  • Forklift or aerial work platform certificate
  • Driving licence B or more
  • Knowledge of rigging, truss or backline
  • Own transport

Experience is nice to have, not a must. Motivation and grit weigh just as much.

STATUS AND
PAYMENT

We work with two tracks. No in-betweens.

Freelance

You invoice through your own company or sole proprietorship with a VAT number. Intermediary platforms and payroll organisations like Smart, Tentoo or Amplo are not accepted.

Through our payroll partner

No VAT number of your own? Then your contract and your pay run through AbsoluteYou, our fixed partner. You register there yourself. They arrange day contract, flexi or student status, depending on your situation.

FREQUENTLY ASKED
QUESTIONS

Do I need experience?+
Preferably yes, but it is not required.
How much can I work?+
As much as you want. One shift a month or four a week. Your availability lives in our planning tool and you manage it yourself. The busy barometer shows you which periods have the most work.
Will I always work in the same place?+
No. Variety is the norm. Venues, festival fields, TV studios, corporate.
When do I get paid?+
Per shift worked. Via payslip at AbsoluteYou or via your invoice as a freelancer. No vague arrangements.
Do I need a VCA certificate?+
Not a must, but useful. Many productions explicitly ask for it. No certificate yet? We help you on your way.
I signed up but see no jobs yet.+
Then your profile has not been approved yet. We do that manually. Fill in your profile completely, that speeds things up. Meanwhile, the busy barometer already shows you when things get busy.
Do I still need to email to apply?+
No. This page is the application. The button below is the rest.
