We’re a team of professionals who have lived and worked in Brussels for years, and we know first-hand the little secrets that help candidates get hired here — especially when you’re abroad and not even getting a call back for an interview. Finding both a job and a place to live at the same time can be incredibly frustrating.

That’s why we created Work and Live in Brussels — to connect people who genuinely struggle to find work in Brussels with real opportunities in companies, associations, trade organizations, NGOs, and public institutions.

At the same time, once you find a job, you also need a place to live. In many cases, candidates are still abroad when they get hired, which makes the housing search even more complicated. Unfortunately, there have been hundreds of scam cases targeting newcomers looking for accommodation in Brussels. We prevent that by connecting candidates with trusted landlords from our network, personally visiting the properties, and making sure the rental contract fits each candidate’s needs.

Over time, we’ve helped people from different backgrounds find real job opportunities and verified housing — avoiding scams, saving time, and reducing stress.
