Welcome to Pokahnights
We go all-in right away: we are the largest live poker club in Belgium with a premium Pokahroom in Wilrijk. At over 20 tables, we host players 6 days a week and offer them a unique experience. The setting, the organization, the programming, the food and drinks: it all exudes top quality. Take a look at www.pokahnights.com or stop by at Boomsesteenweg 440!
There we welcome between 75 and 150 enthusiastic poker players every game day, up to 250 on peak days. In our Pokahroom we only play live tournaments with a maximum buy-in of 50 Euros and 1 re-entry per player. The number of players keeps growing and we still have ambitious plans. So we need extra skills to keep everything on track. Therefore we are looking for an all-round Tournament Director.
At Pokahnights, you can put your talents to work and become the best version of yourself. Our HR policy is designed to support this: a smooth onboarding process, intensive guidance during the first weeks, an open structure where everyone is addressed by their first name, and opportunities for growth. We offer an attractive salary package with meal vouchers and other benefits.
Thinking on an empty stomach? Not happening. Focusing when you're thirsty? No way. That’s why we provide drinks and food from our menu. And off course there’s also fresh fruit. Anything else you need to know? The great colleagues and the fun work atmosphere, perhaps? That no shift is ever the same? That you’ll hear plenty of bad beat stories? That we truly believe in inclusion? You’ve got the essentials now. Keep reading and find out if we’re looking for you.
An all-around Tournament Director
Running poker events is totally your thing. Practically setting up the event, welcoming and registering the players, arranging the seating, handling the occasional discussion, supporting the bar staff, taking care of the payouts: it's the basis of your job. Your workday sometimes ends when the early birds get up, that makes sense. No boring 9to5 job for you!
An event, that's where you feel like a fish in the water. Because you know poker inside out. The game, the rules, the course, the sometimes difficult moments. You have an eye for players who get just a little too creative, you have an ear for players with problems. In short, you have a heart for the game and the players. Every event again you go for 100% satisfied players who love to come back.
