The problems FlexiWork solves for events businesses.

Running an events business should not mean chasing confirmations on a Friday afternoon.

Confirmations still on WhatsApp

Twenty people booked for Saturday. Three have not confirmed. You find out two have double-booked at 4pm Friday — too late to find replacements who already have the brief.

Headcount changing until the last week

Client confirms final numbers with six days to go. You need three more crew. Your casual pool has not been told they are on standby — and the booking gets lost.

No window to fix a mistake on the day

Events have fixed start times and a client who paid for seamless service. The window to recover from a staffing error is effectively zero — the system needs to prevent the error, not react to it.

No-shows with no standby system

One no-show at a 150-cover dinner is felt by every table. Without a confirmed standby list and a fast way to fill the gap, the service quality drops at exactly the wrong moment.

Agency fees on every event weekend

Booking through a traditional agency every weekend means paying 25–35% above the worker's rate. FlexiWork Agency gives you the same workers at a flat 15% platform fee.

Wage records that do not match reality

Events overrun or finish early. Paying scheduled hours rather than actual hours is inaccurate and, for casuals, potentially non-compliant with National Minimum Wage rules.

Built for how events actually run.

Fast confirmation, clean standby management, and accurate wages — without the agency markup.

Rota

Fast confirmation, mobile-first

Send a shift, get a confirmed yes-or-no in minutes. Live dashboard shows who is confirmed, who has declined, and who is still pending — so you can act before it becomes a problem.

Rota

Standby lists per event

Maintain a confirmed standby pool for each event. When a no-show happens, the next available worker is contacted automatically — no scrambling through your contacts at 6pm.

Rota

Brief workers with the shift

Attach event briefings, dress codes and venue details to the shift itself. Workers see everything they need on their phone — no separate emails, no forwarded WhatsApps to find later.

Wages

Pay actual hours, not scheduled

Digital clock in and out captures the hours that actually ran. A wage report at the end of every week reflects reality — accurate, compliant, and ready for payroll.

Agency

Last-minute cover without the markup

Post uncovered shifts to a network of verified UK workers. Build a roster of repeat workers you trust. Pay 15% instead of the 25–35% your agency charges today.

ERA 2025

Compliance records built in

Every shift contributes to each worker's rolling record. Holiday pay tracked automatically — no separate spreadsheet, no add-on, no tribunal exposure.

ERA 2025 compliance is not optional — and 2027 is closer than it looks

The guaranteed hours obligation requires records of actual hours per worker, per 12-week period. FlexiWork builds those records from day one. Learn more about ERA 2025 →

Questions, answered.

What is the best rota software for UK events businesses? +
The right software for an events business enables fast confirmation, supports standby management and tracks actual hours worked against each event. FlexiWork manages your whole events team — permanent crew, casuals and agency workers — in one rota with wage calculation and ERA 2025 records built in.
How much does events staffing software cost? +
Most events platforms charge per user per month, which scales painfully with the casual and agency staff a typical events business uses. FlexiWork charges a flat fee: from £24.50 per month for up to 15 workers, £45.50 for up to 50, and £77 for up to 150. Annual billing gets an extra 20% off, and unlimited venues are included on every plan.
How long is the free trial? +
Every plan starts with a 14-day free trial. No credit card is required to begin. After the trial you choose monthly billing (30% off for 3 months) or annual (20% off all year). Cancel any time — no contracts, no lock-in.
Can it handle last-minute cover for events? +
Yes. Maintain a confirmed standby list per event — when a no-show happens, the next available worker is contacted automatically. For workers you do not already know, post the shift to FlexiWork Agency to access a wider verified pool at a flat 15% platform fee.
Can workers receive briefings through the platform? +
Yes. You can attach event briefings, dress codes and venue details directly to each shift. Workers see everything on their phone alongside the booking — no separate emails to find, no forwarded WhatsApps to dig through on the day.
Does FlexiWork help with ERA 2025 compliance? +
Yes. FlexiWork automatically records the hours each zero-hours and casual worker actually works, building the 12-week reference period data required by the guaranteed hours obligation from 2027. Statutory holiday pay records are also kept automatically. Both are included on every plan.
