REQUIRED HOURS: +32 hours

CONTACT: teamaffald@roskilde-festival.dk

ABOUT THE TASK

Do you like being in the front line and want to contribute to a cleaner and greener festival? Then join our team of binfluencers – a volunteer job that makes a difference!

As a binfluencer, you will be right at the heart of the festival experience, walking through the camping areas with a small team to inform excited festival-goers about the various ways they can dispose of their waste, particularly educating them about waste sorting in their own camps and handing out bags for the purpose.

Specifically, your role will be to:

  • Help festival-goers sort their waste while they are in their camps.
  • Guide guests on how to sort their waste into the familiar waste fractions.
  • Ensure that all camps have the necessary waste bags so the waste is sorted correctly.
  • Advise guests on how to dispose of their waste properly.
  • Direct them to local sorting stations.
  • Encourage guests to take their camping gear home when they leave.

The job is 32 hours in total, spread over 4 shifts of eight hours. We aim to have you work two shifts before the music starts and two shifts during the music days. Shifts are usually scheduled between 8:00 AM and 4:00 PM. You can definitely join the team with your friends.

ABOUT YOU

  • First and foremost, you are passionate about creating a cleaner and greener festival.
  • You are friendly, approachable, and service-minded.
  • You enjoy engaging in conversations with others and thrive in an environment where things can sometimes get busy. On the other hand, you can also maintain a positive attitude during quieter periods.

ABOUT US

Team Participant Sorting and Recycling is an integral part of Roskilde Festival. The team consists of 10 year-round volunteers who work throughout the year to plan and develop initiatives aimed at increasing the sorting of waste for recycling and reuse at the festival. In addition, several hundred festival volunteers help turn these plans into reality and fulfill the goals during the festival. This is where you come in!

We have many years of experience with some waste initiatives, while others are brand new in our ongoing efforts to improve year after year and reduce the amount of waste on the festival grounds, sorting it so resources can be utilized in the best possible way. We hope you will join the team and contribute to making Roskilde Festival cleaner and more sustainable. In return, we will do our very best to create a great festival where you, as a volunteer, feel seen, heard, and appreciated – both for who you are and for the work you do.
