"From displaying creative thinking against brief to first class operational deployment and campaign review, Executional were a value adding partner to collaborate with."
"Thank you so much for sending Brigitte and Amber for our Kingston opening! They were FANTASTIC! The event was a huge success, and they were both so great!"
"Having worked with a number of agencies for approximately 10 years, Executional have proven to be a cut above the rest. They are willing to adapt to client differences, the urgency of some bookings, the complexities of managing such a huge profile of store bookings, across the nation, and do so with positivity and confidence."
"EXECUTIONAL has consistently outperformed other agencies that lacked professionalism and reliability. They are flexible and responsive, making them a top recommendation of ours."
"The team have helped us achieve a lot of great activations and are always super reliable and enthusiastic. Executional are always our go to!"
"Amazingly fast and efficient service from Tim and the team! All ambassadors have had such positive feedback from clients and consumers."
"Executional went above and beyond to fulfill our staffing requirements for our summer roadshow. The staff provided for live events were all well trained and energetic adding to the overall experience of our activation."
"The team of staff for our event were fantastic, the team were enthusiastic and very professional; engaging with our consumers and really represented our brand. Our team leader was amazing and was so helpful on the day!"
"The Team at Executional Event Staffing have supported us for 2 years now. Booking was simple, and they were very helpful every step of the way. Very efficient and I would highly recommend them."
"Communication was excellent throughout and the staff provided were very helpful, proactive and knowledgeable on the brief sent over. Would recommend and use again!"
Choosing between event staff agencies: why us
Managed teams, not a list of names.
The difference between a staffing agency and a list of available people is everything that happens around the shift. That is the part we run.

Questions buyers ask event staffing agencies
Questions buyers ask first.
Still deciding? Call 0113 479 0075 →What is an event staffing agency?
An event staffing agency selects, briefs, schedules and supplies the people who run events and campaigns, then manages them on the day. That differs from a recruitment agency, which fills permanent roles. EXECUTIONAL also pays every person it sends through its own PAYE, so payroll, compliance and attendance sit with us rather than with you.
Are you an event staffing agency or a promotional staffing agency?
Both. As an event staff agency, our operations team staffs conferences, exhibitions and corporate events. As a promotional staff agency, the same team runs promotional, sampling and brand ambassador campaigns in stores, on high streets and at festivals. Many clients book both through us.
Do you cover the whole of the UK?
Yes. We have been supplying event and promotional staff across England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland since 2007, from 40 staffing hubs between Aberdeen, Cornwall and Belfast. Teams come from the hub nearest your venue.
Who employs and pays the staff?
We do. Everyone we supply is paid through our own PAYE payroll, with tax, National Insurance and HR handled in-house. Every role and shift sits on one itemised quote.
Do you work with agencies and stand builders?
Yes. Creative, experiential and event agencies brief us on their clients' behalf and keep the strategy and the client relationship; stand builders bring us in to staff the stands they build. We supply and manage people only: no stand build, storage or vehicles.
How quickly can you quote and staff a booking?
Short-notice bookings are welcome, and every quote comes back itemised. For large or multi-city campaigns, a week or two gives us time to select and brief specifically for the work.
What affects the cost of a booking?
The roles, the number of people, shift lengths and times, the locations and the number of days. Every quote is itemised line by line with no hidden fees, so you see the full picture before you confirm.
How should we compare event staffing companies?
Ask each one how people are selected and briefed, who checks right to work, who holds the insurance, how attendance is tracked on the day, who runs payroll and where their staff actually live. A good agency answers all six without hesitating.
