Volunteer Platform

Where esports events find their crew

NZ Esports Volunteer Portal brings esports opportunities across Aotearoa into one place. Volunteers can discover events, apply for roles, manage their availability and build their experience in the scene. Organisers can sign up to list events, request volunteer support and connect with approved volunteers who are ready to help make events happen.

Description

NZ Esports is supporting the ExileCon team with crew recruitment for this multi-day event at the Aotea Centre and Aotea Square. Paid crew will assist with event registration, merchandise, gaming areas, card game activities, guest movements, set-up and pack-down. We are looking for calm, friendly and reliable people who are comfortable working in a busy event environment. Knowledge of Path of Exile would be helpful and is particularly valuable for game-focused roles. Please note: NZ Esports is assisting with recruitment only. Successful applicants’ contact details, availability and relevant application information will be shared directly with the ExileCon event team, who will manage scheduling, briefings and all event communications.
