Starting All-Rounder Werkplaats & Events
At Werkplaats working hard smoothly turns into having a well-deserved drink! It is the place where artists and young entrepreneurs shove croissants in their mouths and forge brand new plans. It's where solid and less solid decisions are made. Simply put: the ultimate spot for working without a boring office and getting coffee without the pretentious nonsense.
There is so much happening in Werkplaats, and that is exactly why we are looking for someone who gets excited by that energy. From pouring coffees in the morning, to helping out at events during the day, to tapping beers in the evening! Do you love working in a creative, international vibe and do you have little to no experience behind the bar yet? Then we absolutely need to hear from you.
Are you:
Living in or around Amsterdam?
At least 18?
Someone who loves to roll up their sleeves and get to work?
A team player?
Someone who switches gears easily and is flexible?
This is what a day looks like:
Look, the vibe at Werkplaats is casual, so no need to dress up. You are right there on the floor, running the daily show of the café. You are the absolute go-to person for the guests, and you keep a nice eye out for the premium quality of our service and products. And of course, you handle that whole HACCP, health, and safety paperwork like a pro.
During events, you make sure the rooms are set up, you help the guests with whatever they need for their event, and you clean it up afterwards. You are a face of Volkshotel, making sure every single event runs like a well-oiled machine. And it’s not just corporate events. You also get to deal with our very own events happening all over the hotel, like Short Movie Sunday, Live Resort, and markets in our Co-Working space every few months.
You’re always part of a dynamic and creative team, so you never have to do it alone, we’re in it together.
What we offer:
This is an on-call employment with a minimum of 2 shifts (16 hours) per week. The salary is in line with the hospitality sector CAO and your responsibilities. As an employee at Volkshotel, you get to stay in the hotel for free once a year. You can also count on the following: an extra vacation day, discounts on everything in the building, fun staff drinks, and the annual Volks birthday party.
We believe it’s important that our team is as diverse as Amsterdam itself, and we are building a diverse and inclusive workforce. This job is open to all candidates who identify with this.

Werkplaats creëert, net als de andere plekken binnen Volkshotel, ontmoetingen. Hier komen hotelgasten, Amsterdammers, expats, flexwerkers, Broedplaats huurders en personeel binnen om hun plekje in Volkshotel op te zoeken. Omdat Werkplaats zich op de begane grond bevindt, kun je de plek zien als een soort kruispunt. Werkplekken, receptie, zalen en café vloeien hier in elkaar over en zijn met elkaar verbonden. De sfeer is relaxed en ongedwongen en status verdwijnt. Werken gaat hier over in borrelen en misschien rol je daarna zelfs nog door naar andere plekken in het gebouw. Je wordt niet bediend en haalt zelf je drankjes of eten aan de bar.

Volkshotel is een plek waar veel verschillende mensen samenkomen. Dat is de kracht. Volkshotel probeert zo interessant en prettig mogelijke ontmoetingen te faciliteren.

De houding is functioneel en pretentieloos. Open voor alle mensen die open staan voor alle mensen. Ook toegankelijk in prijs.

Alhoewel het hotel pretentieloos is en open staat voor iedereen, doet het niet overdreven zijn best om iedereen te pleasen. Als we hebben bedacht dat iets goed is, dan staan we daarvoor.

Als je het zelf leuk hebt, hebben anderen het ook leuk. We proberen een plezierige omgeving te creëren voor iedereen.
