About the job
Are you looking for a varied role, enjoy getting stuck in, and take pleasure in direct contact with guests and customers? Then this position might be just right for you.
As an Employee in Event Logistics & Festival Operations, you combine two equally important areas of responsibility: You ensure that our infrastructure and materials are reliably available at the deployment site, while simultaneously taking responsibility for the successful execution of our assignments. Both areas are part of your role throughout the year. Depending on the season, the focus shifts more towards logistics or operations at festivals and events.
Your role: You actively shape our presence and, together with your team, ensure a successful guest experience. After a structured internal induction, you independently manage a stand and take responsibility for the team as well as the entire operation. At the same time, you assist in event logistics: transporting our infrastructure, setting up and dismantling sales stands, and ensuring with replenishments that everything runs smoothly during the assignment. This way, you accompany our events from the initial setup to a successful conclusion and see directly the impact of your efforts.
We offer
- A versatile role between event logistics, festival operations, catering, and lunch business
- Varied assignments at festivals and events throughout Switzerland
- The chance to take on responsibility and the opportunity to develop additional skills and qualifications
- Coverage of costs and training time for obtaining the category BE driving licence
- A growing company with a clear identity and strong brand
- 30% employee discount & regular team events
Your tasks
- Transport, setup and dismantling: After checking the event materials provided to you, you independently carry out the transport as well as the professional setup and dismantling of our sales stands, tents, and event equipment according to the assignment briefing. You load and unload vehicles and, if necessary, instruct additional setup helpers on site. You document damages and shortages and ensure reliable return and handover to internal logistics.
- Replenishments and operational supply: You ensure goods and material replenishments during ongoing assignments and respond flexibly with the responsible team to short-term logistical requirements.
- Festival operations & stand management: You independently manage festival, event, and catering assignments—from preparation through sales to guest care. After induction, you are responsible for your stand and the entire on-site presence: you lead your team, instruct them, and coordinate tasks and breaks. You ensure product quality and hygiene, monitor stock levels, and arrange timely reorders. Cash register and accounting, contact with organisers, as well as a well-maintained stand are also part of your duties, along with a proper conclusion of the assignment and reliable handover.
Your profile
- You hold a valid category B driving licence and feel confident handling vans. Category BE is not required at the start of employment; however, you are willing to obtain it immediately after joining.
- You have a hands-on mentality and handle vehicles, materials, and infrastructure carefully.
- Experience in event logistics, transport, setup and dismantling, gastronomy, sales, or customer contact is an advantage but not essential.
- You present yourself in a friendly and reliable manner and are confident to independently manage a stand and a team after induction.
- You work reliably, independently, and solution-oriented, even when requirements change at short notice.
- You are flexible for assignments throughout Switzerland as well as regular weekend, public holiday, early morning, and evening shifts.
- Languages: German skills for secure handovers and communication with guests and organisers; English skills are an advantage, additional languages a plus.
What matters to us
- Reliability: You work dependably, take responsibility, and think independently during your assignments.
- Carefulness: You handle vehicles, materials, infrastructure, and products carefully and responsibly.
- Flexibility: You adapt easily to different assignments and tasks and are willing, especially during our peak seasons, to work regularly on weekends and at varying times.
- Team & demeanour: You enjoy working in a team and present yourself in a friendly and reliable manner towards guests, customers, and organisers.
