← All vacancies

GenderGender · Variable locations, based in Ghent, Belgium, Europe · Part-time and seasonal · Student job, flexi or freelance · Start from October · Apply before 31 August 2026

Who we are

GenderGender is Belgium's gender shop. Based in the heart of Ghent and shipping across Europe, we've been bringing together everything you need to express yourself authentically since 2020, from binders and breast forms to pride accessories, because nobody should have to compromise on who they are.

We're also more than a shop. We're a community hub, and you'll find us at Belgian Prides and LGBTQI+ events all year round. That's where you come in.

What you'll do

As event coordinator you manage our presence at festivals, Prides and community events, from the first registration to the last box back in the van. You plan, you build, you sell, and you think along on how we can improve and do even better next time.

Logistics

  • Scheduling and registering our participation in events
  • Planning the team on site
  • Setting up and dismantling the sales stand

Creative

  • Planning which events we do and how we show up
  • Providing your input on how we can improve future events

On the day

  • Customer contact and sales
  • Till management
  • Keeping the stand clean and tidy

Who you are

Experience in the events sector isn't required. A hands-on mentality is!

  • You're customer-friendly, empathetic and patient, but also assertive
  • You take responsibility and work independently
  • You're creative and flexible, and you keep your head on straight when a plan unexpectedly changes
  • You're comfortable directing a small team on site
  • You handle administrative follow-up without being reminded
  • You speak Dutch and English fluently; speaking French is a bonus
  • You have knowledge of or affinity with neurodivergence
  • You have solid knowledge of or experience with queer topics
  • You hold a category B driving licence (not a provisional one)

What we offer

Beyond a creative, hands-on job with a sales element, where you get to bring a bit of joy to queer people all over Belgium, you also get:

  • A temp contract with the option of a permanent one, or work as a student, flexi or freelancer
  • A part-time, seasonal schedule built around the event calendar
  • Pay to be discussed, plus a commuting allowance
  • Variable workplaces: festival fields, Pride parades, and our shop in Ghent, Belgium, Europe
  • Start from October
  • A warm, small-scale and inclusive working environment

Interested?

Don't wait, act now! We're looking forward to getting to know you.

Apply via jobs@gendergender.com with your CV, plus a motivational letter or something of equivalent value (creativity is rewarded!). Please apply before 31 August 2026.

Are you transgender or queer and neurodivergent? We absolutely welcome your application.
