Job Seeker FAQ’s
Because we’ll treat you better than any other agency. Our employees are our most valuable asset and looking after you is a priority for us. We’ll provide you with an extensive amount of information so you’re always prepared for every job, there’s always a clear line of communication between you and management and you’ll be provided with feedback (good and bad) after each job so you can continue to strive for excellence.
Some of our other benefits:
- If you’re booked for a job and it’s cancelled within a certain timeframe or the shift hours are reduced, you will still be paid for the original booked hours.
- We have an employee portal that will give you access to shopping and entertainment discounts at more than 100 retailers including Lorna Jane, The Iconic, BWS, Hoyts and Woolworths.
- We hold end of year staff parties in our busiest cities (all you can eat & drink, umm yes please!)
- If you show the right work ethic, skills and attitude you can progress through the ranks to Team Leader and potentially even internal positions.
This depends on what role you are working in. Pay rates start from $31.23/hr, but we pay as per Award rates so you will get paid loadings and penalty rates for early starts, late finishes, weekends and public holidays. Superannuation is paid on top of these rates, where applicable. We pay through Tax File Number only and our pay runs are fortnightly.
Our primary locations are Sydney, Melbourne, Perth, Adelaide, Gold Coast & Newcastle.
The answer to this depends on what city you’re in and what time of year it is. Spring/Summer is our busiest time of year although we can have multiple month-long campaigns at any time throughout the year.
This depends completely on your availability and interest in the shifts on offer, however we do maintain an active staff database which means you are expected to apply for shifts actively and not just sit on the database for months without working.
You will have access to a company app where you can view available shifts, apply to work and see your calendar of rostered shifts.

Yes! If you prove yourself as one of our leading brand ambassadors time and time again and show us skills you may have in leadership, we may ask you to step into a Team Leader position. If successful in that role you may then be promoted to Event Manager. We also have internal positions open up from time to time and our casual staff are the first ones notified about the opportuities. Currently four of our internal staff all started as casual staff with us!
Our very best staff are the ones who are consistently reliable when they agree to work shifts, never cancel shifts last minute, always wear the right uniform, are never late, have always read their event brief before each shift and always receive positive feedback from every client they work with.
These staff are rewarded with the pick of the best work (as client’s will request you back again and again), quarterly staff gifts (gift vouchers!), or promotions to Team Leader/Event Manager or internal positions.
