Current hostess job openings in Zurich
The openings for Zurich follow the events that need staff, so the list changes as congresses, trade fairs, product launches and corporate evenings are planned in the city. Each of the event hostess jobs in Zurich is front-of-house work at one of those events: reception, badge checks at registration, guiding visitors around a stand, assisting delegates in a congress hall. VIP hostess jobs in Zurich mean looking after guests in the VIP area of an event. Bar and nightclub hostessing also goes by that word in Zurich, and ToGet4U does not publish it.
If you want part-time hostess jobs in Zurich that sit around a degree course or another job, the arrangement works one event at a time, since you apply only to the offers whose dates you can cover and leave the rest. Zurich is only one stop in the platform’s coverage of cities across Europe, and the event hostess jobs section gathers the others.

How much you earn as a hostess in Zurich
The fee for a hostess job in Zurich is set offer by offer, and it depends on the event, the hours of the shift and the task you cover. A morning welcoming delegates at a congress carries its own fee, and so does a full day on a stand at a fair, with the amount in front of you before you apply and before you accept. Comparing two Zurich jobs therefore comes down to the amounts their offers state.
Your status, with or without a VAT number, sets the timing of your payment. With a VAT number you are paid on terms agreed case by case; without one, occasional work is paid on scheduled dates and an employment contract on the same case-by-case terms.
Requirements to apply in Zurich
Each offer lists its own requirements, so you can tell before applying whether it suits you. Availability on the dates comes first, together with a professional attitude on the day: arriving on time, following the briefing and staying at your post until the shift ends. Many offers ask for no previous experience, and those that require it say so. Zurich (Zürich in German) is a German-speaking city, so an opening there may ask for German, English or both. The distance between the event and where you live matters too, because a venue you would struggle to reach on time is a date you cannot promise.
How to apply and get selected in Zurich
The Zurich openings are handled entirely online. You sign up free, then put together a profile with the services you offer, a professional photo, your past jobs, short ones included, all worth keeping current. The Zurich offers that match your dates then get your application directly from your account area.
Applications go through a preselection, and the final choice belongs to the company running the event. If you are selected, a digital contract comes through for you to sign, and the briefing that follows tells you if your place is on a stand, at the entrance or in the congress hall. Apply now to the Zurich openings that fit your schedule.
Events and venues hiring in Zurich
As Switzerland’s largest city, Zurich hosts trade fairs and exhibitions, congresses, product launches and company meetings. All of them need people at the entrance and at registration, and a fair needs them on the stands too. Some take place in exhibition halls and congress centres, others in hotel conference rooms or on company premises, and the offer states where before you apply.
