Register with EXECUTIONAL for festival jobs, event work and promotional shifts across the UK. Once your profile is complete, shifts near you arrive as job alerts and you apply for the ones that fit your week.
You'll need to be 18 or over and have the right to work in the UK, and we check it before your first shift. You're paid weekly through our PAYE payroll, so tax and National Insurance are handled for you.
"What a great friendly team not a bad word to say about this agency. Thank you for all you've done for me."

Why register
Work that fits around your week
People register with us because the shifts are local, the pay arrives weekly and there is always someone to call. Part time or most of the week, you choose your working hours.
We pay you through our PAYE for every shift you work. Work any shift from Monday to Sunday and we pay you the following Wednesday. We take care of tax and National Insurance.
02
Shifts near home
We work from 40 hubs across England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. You only see the shifts you can reach from where you live.
03
Everything in StaffWise
Your profile, job alerts, shift applications, briefings and earnings all sit in StaffWise, our staff platform, on your phone or laptop.
04
Briefed before you arrive
Every booking comes with a written briefing on the brand, the role, the timings and what to wear. You know what the day involves before you get there.
05
You choose your shifts
There is no minimum commitment. Apply for the work that suits you and skip what doesn't, whether that's one festival weekend or several shifts a week.
06
Support when you need it
Questions about a shift, your schedule or your pay? Our in-house team is on hand seven days a week.
The work
Festival, event and promo jobs
Most of our work falls into three types. Your profile tells us which you'd like, and job alerts follow from there. When new event and festival jobs come in, you hear about them first.
Brand bars, sampling stands, wristband exchange, information points and sponsor activations at music festivals, food festivals and outdoor shows, from Reading to Wireless and Wilderness. Festival jobs run mainly from May to September, often over long days and weekends, so check the briefing for start times, getting there and what to bring.
02
Event and exhibition work
Registration desks, hosting, cloakrooms and stand roles at conferences, exhibitions, awards nights and sports fixtures, all year round. Event jobs and exhibition jobs suit people who are organised and have good customer service skills. Hostess jobs often call for smart dress and a calm manner, and the event manager on site tells you where you're needed.
03
Promotional work
Brand ambassador jobs, sampling jobs, leafleting and in-store promotions on high streets, in shopping centres, supermarkets and stations. Promo jobs suit people who enjoy starting conversations, and there is regular work in London and every major city. Look out for leafleting shift alerts near you.
Fill in the registration form with your details, where you live and the kind of work you're after. It takes a few minutes.
Add your photos, experience and availability in StaffWise. We check your right to work in the UK before we can book you. If you hold a British or Irish passport, that's a digital ID check. If you have status in the UK, we use your Home Office share code.
Shifts you can reach come through as job alerts. Apply for the ones you want; we confirm bookings once the brief is matched.
Read your briefing, check in on the day through StaffWise and get paid the following Wednesday.

Your profile is how we and our clients choose who to book, so treat it like your CV.

Behind the scenes
See what a shift looks like
On every booking
Your support team, seven days a week
When you're on a live booking, our team is a message or a call away, from the night before your shift to the moment you check out.
We recruit all year, and festival job alerts go out every spring. If a friend wants to gain experience with festival, event or promotional work that fits around their week, send them this page. They can register the same way you did.
On every shift you represent a brand as well as EXECUTIONAL. We book people for their attitude, presentation and fit for the role, and these are the guidelines that keep clients asking for you again.
Your briefing
Before your first shift you get a written briefing covering the brand or product, what you'll be doing, locations, dates and timings, what to wear and who to contact. Someone from our team will run through it with you and answer any questions.
Do
Follow our check-in steps
On the day we check you're on your way and on site. Your briefing explains how, and it must be followed.
Make a great first impression
Arrive on time and on brand. Clients often tell us about great staff, and it goes on your profile for future bookings.
Keep in touch
Stay in contact with the on-site contact all day so they always know what you're working on.
Look the part
Follow the dress code in your briefing and keep any branded clothing on show. Keep make-up simple, facial hair groomed and hair tidy.
Don't
Use your phone on shift
Checking your phone in uniform looks unprofessional, however hard you've worked. Use it on your breaks.
Show branding on breaks
Cover branded clothing when you're on a break so you never send the wrong message for the brand.
Post without checking
We love it when you share a campaign, but follow the briefing's social media guidance and ask us if you're unsure.
Discuss pay, expenses or accommodation
Raise anything about your shift or pay with our team, never with the client or other staff.
Uniform guidelines
What to wear
Every campaign has its own uniform, depending on the brand, the activity and where it takes place, and your briefing tells you exactly what to wear. A few basics in your wardrobe mean you're ready for most bookings.
Casual
Plain black and white t-shirts, for unbranded promotions
Plain black and white long-sleeved tops, to wear under a branded t-shirt in colder months
Smart black or blue jeans with no rips
Smart black trousers, often needed for exhibitions and smarter events
Plain black or white trainers, or smart black shoes
Formal events
Formal trousers, a pencil skirt or an office dress
A black or white shirt or blouse
Black heels or flats, with nude or dark tights
Smart black brogues or loafers
Grooming
Natural, minimal make-up
Tidy hair, tied back if long
Clean-shaven or a well-groomed beard
Jewellery kept to a minimum, such as a wedding band or chain
Some campaigns may ask you to remove piercings
Feedback and photos
You're our eyes and ears
How we use your feedback
Your shift feedback goes back to the client so they know how their campaign is going. At the end of a campaign we put every report together by location, working times, materials handed out and what the public said. You may be the only person at a location, so your report matters, and great feedback often leads to clients asking for you again.
Submitting feedback
After each shift, fill in the report under the Reporting tab in StaffWise. The form prompts you on each part of the day: take your time and add as much detail as you can.
Photos we love
Where the role and venue allow, send photos that show people getting involved.
Action shots
Taken by a teammate while you're talking to a member of the public.
On the stand
Shows the client how well presented you and the promotional items are.
Members of the public
People holding up their sample, giveaway or leaflet with a big smile.
Team shots
The whole team together in uniform, ready to start the day.
Cancelling a shift
Can't make a shift? Call us
If anything will stop you getting to or attending your shift, call the office. We're open seven days a week, including weekends.
Always call the office number, not your booker: not everyone is on call at any given time.
Tell us as early as you can
Don't wait for your check-in text on the day. The more notice you give, the better our chance of finding a replacement.
When you're booked
Sign in with us before your shift, arrive 15 minutes before your start time and give the client a great day.
What happens next
Every cancellation is noted on your profile and seen by our team when they consider you for future shifts. We look at each one on its own merits, but short-notice cancellations are taken seriously and can lead to your profile being suspended.
