I have the following code:
\usemodule[fancybreak]

\definefancybreak[myblank][indentnext=no]

\define[2]\StartWorkTable{
  \myblank[2*big]
  \starttabulate[|w(.1\textwidth)|p(.9\textwidth)|]
  \HL
  \NC #1 \NC #2               \NC\NR
  \HL
  \NC    \NC {\bf Gedaan}     \NC\NR
}

\define[1]\ActivityWorkTable{
  \NC    \NC \bullet\space #1 \NC\NR
}

\define\StopWorkTable{
  \HL
  \stoptabulate
}

\starttext

\StartWorkTable{Huidig}{Senior software engineer bij Artex}
\ActivityWorkTable{Teamleader voor een groep van 5 PHP-programmeurs die
  werken volgens scrum/agile principes. Dit team ontwikkeld
  grootschalige web applicaties met gebruikmaking van PHP/AJAX/Zend en
  HTML5.
}
\ActivityWorkTable{Quality Management}
\ActivityWorkTable{Schrijven documentatie, zowel technische als gebruikers}
\ActivityWorkTable{Definieren nieuwe functionaliteiten}
\ActivityWorkTable{Installeren subversion server en definiëren werkwijze}
\StopWorkTable

\stoptext

When I compile this I get:
compileContextFiles.sh --verbose

Runaway argument?
 \HL \NC Huidig \NC Senior software engineer bij Artex \NC \NR \HL \NC \ETC.

<empty file>

                \stoptext
?

When I put a \stoptabulate after \StopWorkTable it compiles as expected. But
why does the \stoptabulate in \StopWorkTable not work?

This is a limitation of the way how tabulate is written. When you want to put a table in macros use \starttable or \bTABLE.

An alternative is to capture the content in tokens:

\newtoks\WorkTableToks
\define[2]\StartWorkTable{
   \myblank[2*big]
   \WorkTableToks
   {\starttabulate[|w(.1\textwidth)|p(.9\textwidth)|]
   \HL
   \NC #1 \NC #2               \NC\NR
   \HL
   \NC    \NC {\bf Gedaan}     \NC\NR}
}

\define[1]\ActivityWorkTable{
   \appendtoks
   \NC    \NC \bullet\space #1 \NC\NR
   \to\WorkTableToks
}

\define\StopWorkTable{
   \appendtoks
   \HL
   \stoptabulate
   \to\WorkTableToks
   \the\WorkTableToks
}
