Student vacancy: Projector operator Filmhuis De Zwarte Doos (6 hrs/week)

Are you a real movie fan? Then we have the best job you can imagine. Studium Generale (SG) is looking for an enthusiastic student assistant who will work as a film projector operator, starting from 15th of August. As a film projector operator, you will be responsible for showing the film every Tuesday and Wednesday evening in Filmhuis De Zwarte Doos on the TU/e campus.

Together with the box office assistant, you ensure the smooth running of Studium Generale's film screenings. You will be given a lot of responsibility and will work independently. Besides being "the face" of SG, you are also the eyes and ears of the program makers. You will contribute to the development of the program, and you will be part of the film committee. 

Your tasks:

  • Preparing and testing the movie including sound  (and very occasionally welcoming the audience)
  • Operation of the projector including proper startup and shutdown
  • Support for special programs (such as microphone checks, screening powerpoint and receiving guests).
  • Helping with the Instagram account and film texts for the website
  • Editing trailers, preparing and possibly designing Instagram posts
  • Supporting tasks for Studium Generale (administrative, helping with the TU/e intro etc).

Qualities and skills:

  • Reliable
  • Accurate
  • Responsible
  • Communicative
  • Solution-oriented
  • Affinity with film

Requirements:

  • You are available every Tuesday and Wednesday from 18:45 to approximately 22:30 (depending on the length of the film). During the TU/e vacation periods and during exam-weeks there won't be any film screenings and you won’t have to [physically work at Zwarte Doos.
  • You are a student at TU/e.
  • It is a plus if you are available for longer than one academic year.
  • It’s a plus if you live in Eindhoven (so you don’t have to worry about catching a train or bus late at night).

What we offer:

  • Contract of 6 hours per week from August 15 2025 until December 31, 2025 (with possible extension).
  • Salary as a student-assistant via Euflex (hourly wage depending on the year/phase of your studies).
  • Free entrance to all movies and you can also bring one guest for free.
  • Possibility to participate in the student film committee (on a voluntary basis).

If this role appeals to you, don't hesitate to apply before Wednesday, April 30, 2025 by sending your motivation letter and resume to David Ernst:  studium.generale@tue.nl. For more information you can also contact us at this e-mail address. The interviews will take place on Tuesday, May 13 or Thursday May 15. Onboarding/work instructions will take place in June.
