Marquee / Tipi Rigger

About us

Here at Buffalo, building tents is our sport and since 2014 we have built a dream team of tipi tentists. Our team is built on positivity and personality. This creates an inclusive and productive working environment, making the muddy days rewarding and the sunny days an absolute pleasure.

THE JOB

We are looking for enthusiastic people to come and help build our giant tipis throughout the South West this summer (May - October).

Experience in erecting marquees or tipis would be great, but not essential. It's important that you are positive, confident and enjoy hard work in the great outdoors - everything else can be taught . You must however, have a full clean driving license.

THE RESPONSIBILITIES

- Building, lighting, furnishing and dismantling tipis

- Driving vans and trucks to and from sites

- Loading and unloading vehicles

- Cleaning and maintaining all stock

- Maintaining high warehouse standards

THE QUALITIES

- Enthusiasm/energy

- Positivity

- Teamwork

- Organisation

THE HOURS

This is not a 9 to 5. You are expected to work long days and will spend most of your time out on site. You will be expected to work the odd Sunday, but very rarely on a Saturday.

Due to the nature of the work and the early starts you must live near Buffalo HQ (SN13 9QP).

THE BENEFITS

- Flexible hours -- part-time or full-time hours available

- You get your schedule a month in advance

- Competitive hourly wage

- Working outdoors all summer

- A very active working environment

- Being part of a young, ambitious and fun team

- Career progression opportunities
