Job vacancy: work as a freelance bartender at parties and events
Working as a freelance bartender on location is the best job you could possibly have. But of course, we don’t need to tell you that. Our bartenders mainly work at corporate events such as staff parties.
There are two ways to work at Bar Company as a freelance bartender:

- Based in Nijmegen
You’ll set off from our office in Nijmegen. You’ll be provided with a van containing everything you need – from the mobile bar to the crates of ice. You’ll set up the bar yourself, run the event, and afterwards you’ll pack everything away and drive back to Nijmegen. Sometimes you’ll work with a second bartender, but usually you’ll run the cocktail bar on your own. The advantage of this option is that you’ll clock up plenty of hours. You’ll be paid in full for the set-up and dismantling, as well as the journey there and back.
- Travelling straight to the party
We’re also looking for freelance bartenders who can come straight to the event venue. We’ll make sure everything’s already set up by the time you arrive. And you don’t need to worry about packing up afterwards either. Brilliant, isn’t it?

What do we expect from our freelance bartenders?
You’ve clocked up plenty of hours behind the cocktail bar and are able to work independently. This means you can put yourself in our customers’ shoes and take care of everything for them. You’re also very welcoming towards our guests. You treat our equipment as if it were your own. But the most important thing is that you possess these qualities, because these are our core values:
- Flexible
- Enthusiastic
- Welcoming
- Responsible
You’ll also need to present yourself well, as you’ll be Bar Company’s figurehead on site. Our bars are stylish and the coffee is excellent. But it’s our enthusiastic bartenders behind the cocktail bars who really make the difference.
Delivering bartender training courses
Do you have the necessary experience and do you enjoy delivering training sessions? If so, you could also work as a trainer. As well as experienced senior bartenders, we also work with junior bartenders. These are mainly students from Nijmegen. Our junior bartenders receive regular training to help them improve and eventually become senior bartenders. We are looking for additional trainers for these training sessions in Nijmegen.

What can you expect?
The best part-time job you could ever have!
- You’ll be working in a really friendly team of seventy baristas and bartenders
- You’ll experience the most amazing parties and events
- You’ll visit the most beautiful places all over the country
- The work is incredibly varied because every event is different
- And you can earn good money from it too!
