He started with cabaret. He was discovered in 1964 by writer and comedian Jaap Van de Merwe. After seeing him perform in Amsterdam, Van der Merwe hired him and made him participate as pianist to his performances.[1] After his collaboration with Van de Merwe, he worked with Wim Kan and Henk Elsink, among others. Thereafter he was active in music, singing and acting. In 1971 he was awarded a Zilveren Harp for his contribution to the Dutch song.[2][1] Lambrechts was a contributor to the satirical radio program Cursief in the early 1970s.[1]

From November 1984 to December 1993 Lambrechts was Hoofdpiet in television programs about Sinterklaas. He later gave up portraying the character, which was taken over by Erik de Vogel. Between 1991 and 2010 he dubbed Tigger in the Dutch dubbing of the Winnie the Pooh cartoons.[1] In the 1990s he appeared in television commercials for Gamma. He had a recurring role in Goede tijden, slechte tijden, and appeared as Meeuwse in All Stars. In the film and television series The Flying Liftboy he had an important supporting role as Jozias Tump. He later dubbed Mater in the film series Cars (from 2006) and the main character Carl Fredricksen in Up (2009).

In 2003 Lambrechts received a Gouden Beelden for Best Actor.[1] He was awarded this prize for his role as a mildly demented elderly man in Sloophamer.[1]
