What is Podium?

At Podium, we create professional events where you and your fellow students discover your role in the world of tomorrow. Think pop-up performances, creative clubs, workshops, food events, talk shows, storytelling evenings, and much more! Working at Podium is flexible, varied and offers plenty of room for your personal development. Don’t worry if you don’t know or can’t do everything yet: enthusiasm, creativity and commitment is what we are looking for!

What will you do?

  • Plan and set up events: Whether it’s the Food Club, Study Sounds or any other idea, you will help shape the programme. Do you have talents such as making music, dancing, filming or another creative background? Let us know – we would love to work with your skills!
  • Host and community maker: As host and vibes chief, you are the face of our events. You speak to people and make everyone feel welcome. You also invite people outside the events, recognise faces you have seen before and, of course, send all your classmates the latest event updates.
  • Events from A to Z: Whether you are scanning tickets, addressing visitors for impact measurements or helping with production, you pick it up and work together with the team to make everything run smoothly.
  • Teamwork: You will work together with 6 staff members and 9 student assistants in an inspiring, collegial atmosphere.

Who are you?

  • You are enthusiastic, responsible and proactive. Willing to take initiative and apply yourself.

  • A friendly team with 6 employees and 9 student assistants.
  • Flexible working hours that you can easily combine with your studies.
  • Fun team workshops in which you develop your work together with your colleagues.
