The main driving force of the team, and a genuine staff position. You have attended EF a few times and know your way around? Maybe you even worked for the convention before and want to keep being awesome to others in general and fursuiters especially? Much like the helper, your job is to keep the lounge running and equipped, keep an open eye for any medical or social emergencies in the lounge, and assist with fursuit events if needed. You will also be running your timeslot shift as “person in charge” either alone or with a helper.

You can also specialise on a certain aspect of duties. Purchase preparations, resource management, construction,..

You may have to dedicate a few more hours during the convention, as we need to fill all timeslots with responsible people. We also need people to help with setup and breakdown on early-day and on dead-dog day, and would love to see you there if any possible.

The Convention Store in the Dealers’ Den is responsible for providing people with the current (and past) official t-shirts, as also for handing out the benefit package for sponsors and super sponsors.
This means we’re in contact with a lot of people from all over the world, so English is a must - but being creative when no common language works is also a big plus.

We’re operating during the regular Dealers’ Den opening times, as also during the setup and teardown times for dealers - from Thursday to Saturday. If you think you have some hours to spare in those opening times, please contact me at constore@eurofurence.org or on Telegram, @Vulniir

Our team specializes in creating a welcoming atmosphere for all artists, dealers and their helpers. We enable dealers to focus on what is most important to them: fulfilling even the most unique requests and wide ranging needs of their clients.

• providing services to artists, dealers and their helpers and
• responding to their requests within the facilities serviced by us,

• You already have knowledge in the field of sales, guest services or have other experience in interacting with customers in a professional manner on site or would like to learn more about this topic.
• You have a sense of how to handle even challenging situations in a calm, de-escalating manner, and always with a smile. In stressful situations, you remain quiet, collected, and professional.

You may have to spend a few extra hours during the convention, as we need to fill all of our time slots with responsible people. We also need someone to help with setup on Wednesday and teardown on Sunday morning and would love to have you join us. It would be a great advantage - but not a requirement - if you booked early arrival (Tuesday) and late departure (Monday).

Following your application, we will have a brief call with you to get to know you a little bit. A personal conversation between you and the team leader will help all sides to make sure we are on the same page with any questions you may have.
