Corporate Catering, Dining & Hospitality Staff

We know that, for our Corporate clients, an event is not just 'an event' - it is so much more: it is your reputation, your brand, your future success. We understand because we are a corporate organisation ourselves and because we have been managing events for over 25 years.

In fact, our dedication to the Catering and Hospitality side of our business is such that we acquired Esprit group, provider of specialist front-of-house and behind-the-scenes events personnel. This means that all staff at your event will be fully-briefed to represent your brand and messages – from those meeting and greeting, to those serving to those involved in the logistics – so that guests’ experiences will flow seamlessly from start to finish.

There is little limit to the range of experienced, professional events staff we can support you with so this is by no means an exhaustive list. Rather, by way of example, we can provide highly experienced:

Chef Managers | Executive Chefs | Head Chefs | Sous Chefs & Chefs de Partie

Commis Chefs | General Assistants | Silver Service Waiting Staff | Event Waiting Staff

Tea & Coffee Persons | Butlers | Beadles | Mixologists & Bar staff | Sommeliers

Supervisors & Hosts | Porters & Kitchen Porters | Temporary Housekeepers

We only use candidates who understand the high expectations and exacting standards of our corporate clients and we maintain carefully updated records on our Temporary staff, including their availability, their references from employers and their work history.

As well as a world-leading comprehensive events service, our Corporate team also provides

·         PAs

·         Events personnel

·         Catering services

·         Housekeeping services

·         Chauffeurs

·         Concierge services

·         Healthcare services

To organisations of every size in every sector across the UK and around the world.

The breadth of our services are far too long to enter into in detail here but we would love to speak with you and arrange a meeting to discuss all of your requirements and the many ways in which we could assist you. Simply contact us at your earliest convenience. We look forward to hearing from you!
