What are you going to do:

We are Timber & Canvas, a nationwide tent and event hire company based in sunny Manchester. We are on the hunt for enthusiastic crew members for the rest of our summer season, and into our winter season.

Your job will be to travel to beautiful outdoor locations to install tents and event gear for weddings and parties. Our close-knit crews are busy, but we know how important it is to relax after hard work on site and we offer some great incentives. Plus, it's loads of fun :) We are looking for people with a positive 'can-do' attitude, who thrive on hard work and the great outdoors.

Many of our crew come from roles in other industries such as lighting and AV, the forces, landscapers, marquee erectors, etc, all of which have highly transferable skills for our work.

Experience of building tents is desirable but not necessary as full training will be given.
