Internship Event Management @DB55

Job Discription

By day, DB55 is a buzzing co-working space for approximately 80 people across seven companies – architects, designers, sustainability pioneers, food innovators, and more. By night (and weekends), the space transforms: pop-up restaurants, product launches, workshops, exhibitions. You name it, we make it happen. And we need someone to help us do exactly that. Full time, for a period of 6 months, starting as of September.

Hosting & floor work
