Job description

Build/Break Event Crew

Hotel Bell Tent have been creating boutique camps at the UK’s best outdoor events since 2008.

Build and Break crew members work to create Hotel Bell Tent boutique event accommodation, at music festivals and other events across the UK. We currently work at Glastonbury, El Dorado, Download, Wilderness, Green Man, Latitude, Love Supreme, Reading and Leeds, along with many other festivals and events.

As a member of the Build and Break Crew, your work would involve setting up and dressing structures, maintaining structures during the event, and setting down / packing away stock ready to be loaded after an event is finished. This role involves very physical work, including carrying heavy items, as well as attention to detail, and a good customer facing attitude.

This is a temporary job, where candidates with good availability over the summer months (June-September) would expect to be offered 4-5 festivals to work at over the summer. This would equate to 3-4 weeks of work per month (June-August), with potential for overtime. If a candidate has limited availability, we would offer projects based on their availability over the summer.

Event tickets will be provided to all Build and Break Crew on almost all festivals and events. All employees will be required to stay on site during a project and will be provided 3 meals a day during the build and break. Transport costs are covered to and from events, with costs required to be signed off pre event.
