Frequently Asked Questions

What is an event staffing agency?
+

An event staffing agency like Executional recruits, briefs and supplies trained staff for events and promotional campaigns. We handle staff selection, payroll, compliance and on-site management so you can focus on your event. As a UK-wide events agency established in 2007, we cover everything from one-off conferences and exhibitions through to nationwide brand activation campaigns. Our 6,000+ trained staff work across event staffing and promotional staffing for brands, agencies and venues across the UK.

Are you a national agency?
+

Yes. As a national event staffing agency and nationwide promotional staffing agency, we cover the entire UK. We have 40 staffing hubs and dedicated city teams in London, Manchester, Birmingham, Glasgow, Edinburgh, Leeds, Bristol, Liverpool, Newcastle, Sheffield, Nottingham, Cardiff, Belfast and Southampton, as well as full coverage across Scotland.

Are you a recruitment agency or a temp agency?
+

We are an event recruitment agency that supplies temporary, campaign-based staff — an event temp agency in everyday terms. We are not a permanent recruitment agency. Our 6,000+ registered staff work flexibly across single-day bookings, multi-day exhibitions, weekly retail rollouts and full nationwide tours, with payroll, tax, National Insurance and HR all handled in-house.

Do you work as an event marketing agency?
+

We work as the staffing partner for event marketing and promotional marketing campaigns. Our trained teams deliver against the strategy set by your in-house marketing team or creative agency. From brand activations and experiential campaigns through to sampling and roadshow tours, we provide the people on the ground.

Do you handle event planning as well as staffing?
+

We are a staffing-focused events agency — we deliver the people, not the event design. We supply trained staff to deliver against your brief or your event planner's brief, rather than designing the event itself. We work alongside in-house marketing teams, creative agencies and event production companies who already have a concept and need a delivery partner for the people on the ground.

How quickly can you turn around a booking?
+

For most campaigns we confirm a fully briefed team within 48 to 72 hours. For larger or multi-site activations we recommend 1 to 2 weeks' lead time so we can recruit and brief specifically against your campaign. We also handle last-minute requests — contact us and we will confirm availability the same day.

How much does it cost to book staff through your agency?
+

Pricing depends on the number of staff, duration of the campaign, the roles required and the location. We provide fully itemised quotes with no hidden fees. Get in touch with your brief and we will respond with a detailed quote within a few hours.

What's your process for selecting staff?
+

We match staff based on experience, location, availability and client brief requirements. Every booking is reviewed by our operations team to match staff skills to your brief. Right-to-Work documents are checked for all staff. Additional compliance requirements including DBS checks, food hygiene certification, alcohol licensing and risk assessments are all available on request.

How do I book staff through your agency?
+

Request a free quote through our online form or call us on 0113 479 0075 (Leeds) or 0203 026 1069 (London). Tell us your campaign dates, location, number of staff needed and any specific requirements. We respond with a fully itemised quote within hours and can often confirm availability the same day.

What kind of brands and agencies do you work with?
+

We work with FMCG brands, retail and high-street businesses, marketing agencies, event production companies, drinks brands and B2B exhibitors. Recent campaigns include Shell, Stella Artois, ASOS, Yakult, Specsavers, Kinder and Missguided. Whether you are a brand booking direct or an agency briefing on a client's behalf, we work to your specs and reporting requirements.
