These tasks await you
Team award ceremony
As part of our award ceremony team, you stand together with our host Ann-Kathrin Linsenhoff, her daughter Marie Linsenhoff, the chief judge of the respective competition and our partners at every award ceremony and present her with the prizes and flowers. Do you always have a smile on your face and a well-groomed appearance? The photographers are always ready and photos are taken of every award ceremony.
VIP hostess
Do you love and live hospitality and have a positive charisma? Then the VIP area is the right place for you! You welcome our guests and partners, check tickets and accompany our guests to their seats. You're on top form when there's a lot going on, you always have a smile on your face and always stay calm and on top of things, even in stressful situations. You have an open ear for our guests' questions and take care of their concerns. Knowledge of the tournament is an advantage, but not a requirement. You are also flexible enough to take on different tasks within the team. Good English is desirable.
Cash registers/admission controls
With your positive nature and a nice “hello” on your lips, you welcome our visitors at the entrances to the stands and check the tickets. You are the contact person for our guests if they have any questions and take care of their concerns. Knowledge of the tournament is an advantage, but not a requirement. You are also flexible enough to take on different tasks within the team.
Dressage arena
There is hardly a job that is closer to the sport than that of the arena opener. It is your responsibility to open and close the arena at the right time so that the riders can get in and out of the arena smoothly. At the same time, you can watch the best riders in the world and take the opportunity to learn from them. Sounds like a perfect job, doesn't it?
Childcare
As a child lover, you will welcome our youngest guests and their parents in our Schafhof Kinderland and ensure that the kids have just as unforgettable a time with us as all other visitors. If you have a high sense of responsibility and always keep an eye on everything, then support us and become part of an unforgettable day in the lives of the children.
Judges' houses
To ensure that our judges are well supplied during the tests, we always prepare the judges' houses with sufficient drinks and a few cookies. This equipment has to be replaced between each test. Structured work, speed and a reliable team are required here. You are close to the action and can easily make exciting contacts.
Grandstand team
With your positive nature and a nice “hello” on your lips, you welcome our visitors at the entrances to the grandstands, check the tickets and, if necessary, show them the way to their seats. Once the check has begun, you can of course watch from the grandstand without losing sight of the stairs. You are the contact person for our guests if they have any questions and take care of their concerns. Knowledge of the tournament is an advantage, but not a requirement. You are also flexible enough to take on different tasks within the team.
