Who are we?

Sherlocked is the award-winning experience design studio behind a wide range of both live and online adventures.

Our mission: to make the world more magical.

We’re looking for an events intern to work alongside our creative team starting late '22 (start date flexible) focusing on: 

1. Our group escape game in Amsterdam, Time Crimes
2. Custom event games on location
3. Running and improving our permanent escape rooms in Amsterdam

1. Time Crimes

As an events intern you will be responsible for communicating with both customers and game hosts, ensuring the location is prepared and taking care of hospitality on the premises.

2. Custom Event games

We’re often invited to design custom event-based games for clients, which poses a whole new set of challenges that will require you at your sharpest to navigate. The video below gives a peek into our process for the creation of The Box Game:

3. Running & Improving our Escape Rooms

You'll be trained to be able to run any of our 3 escape rooms, both for the purpose of improving them, as well as being able to run them in case someone on the team falls ill. You'll use your knowledge of hospitality to improve our customers' experience, from our website, customer service, to the on-location experience and beyond.

A glimpse from some of our productions:

Are you:

• Self-determined. You don’t wait for people to give you tasks, you invent your own and take initiative. You ask for help where needed.
• Excited about event management. Organisation comes naturally to you, you have a ‘hands-on’ mentality and you’re excited to assist in coordinating all aspects of event planning. 
  
• Able to iterate. We are a design-led organisation and we often go through multiple versions to get things right, and that's an environment you thrive in.
• Eager to learn. The tricks of the trade are constantly changing, and you are eager to develop your skills.

What do we offer?

• A fun internship and rich variety of projects
• €400 internship compensation per month, plus travel cost
• A team of creative, enthusiastic and driven colleagues
• Many opt-in team events like escape rooms (live and online), game nights and other surprise experiences
• A great workplace in the heart of Amsterdam, combined with the freedom to work remotely

Our office is located in the former French Consulate in the heart of town, with a wild garden at its core that's perfect for summer meetings, lunches and drinks
