AFAIK there is no official hand signal. I establish eye contact with the respective person, point to my nose and subsequently in the direction the push needs to be performed. It is followed by the “brakes on” signal from my side, indicating ready for pushback.
If it gets more complicated (long push, push on a specific line etc.), I just open the window and shout. Not the most elegant solution, but it works
