Experiential staffing agency
Experiential staffing means supplying and managing the people who run brand experiences. We work for experiential agencies, producers, production companies and brands, from one brand ambassador to a full event crew.
Experiential work needs people who can think on their feet and stay on brief. Experiential recruitment comes down to finding those people. We find them, train them and manage them, so your team can get on with the build and the client.
Agencies and production companies come to us for overflow, for a whole team or for one specialist role. We work with tech, sport, esports, retail, fashion and PR clients, and with overseas brands that need a local team in the UK.

How we work with agencies.
- 01
One contact
You deal with one person, not twenty staff. When the plan changes, you tell us and the team knows.
- 02
Your name on the badge
We can work under your name, in your branding. Here is how white-label works.
- 03
You approve the people
You see profiles or intro videos before anyone is booked. On big jobs the client can meet them too.
- 04
Report in your format
We send timesheets, shift photos, KPIs and notes in the format your client expects.

FAQs.
What is an experiential staffing agency?
An agency that supplies and manages the people who run brand experiences, such as brand ambassadors, hosts, actors and event managers. It does not design the campaign.
Do you work with production companies?
Yes. A production company that booked us for one check-in desk went on to book us for a season of nine EA esports shows.
Can you work under our name?
Yes. We agree whose name the team works under, and we do not contact your client without your written agreement.
Do you work with brands directly?
Yes. Brands book us directly, and through their agencies.
We are an overseas brand. Can you be our UK team?
Yes. We work as the local team for international brands in the UK, with 25 languages in rotation. See our international work.
