Junior / Medior Event Management

About DB55:

DB55 is an office & event space in Houthavens Amsterdam.

During workdays, 50 people from 8 different companies work on their “daily business” – architecture, vitality, circularity, and more.

During evenings and weekends, the space is used for a wide range of activities: pop-up restaurants, ice-baths, band rehearsals, education, workshops, awards shows, book launches, you name it.

During some workdays, we even combine work with events, stretching the limits of how space is used. DB55 is initiated by design studio D/DOCK, to showcase how space can be used to create social, financial and environmental return by blending functions. Joining DB55 means becoming part of the D/DOCK team, enjoying all kinds of benefits such as delicious lunches, company drinks, team-days, inspirational sessions and companionship in our team of 40 colleagues.
