Monica was amazing! She arrived on time, heated and served finger food at our daughter’s 18th and cleaned and tidied as she went. She was friendly, easy to get along with and worked really hard. This was our first time using airtasker and we couldn’t have been happier. We would recommend Monica to anyone. She won over a room full of 18year olds. Not an easy task!

What do staffing services include?

Staffing services help you fill in the roles needed in your team, at least temporarily. With their suitable skills and experience, they can assist you with delivering the tasks you need to fulfil. Whether you need someone to be part of your wait staff, marketing staff, or customer service team, recruiting the best manpower resources available even at the last minute is crucial to keep your business running. 

Hospitality staffing

Running a hospitality business can be overwhelming, especially on a busy day or during a special event. In these situations, hiring a short-term barista, bartender, chef, concierge, or duty manager can keep your business running smoothly. They can be added manpower to help your entire team deliver the best service, or they can also be convenient replacements if you have key staff members calling in sick or needing a day off work. Having them on board can help you focus on important tasks while keeping your guests well-fed and entertained.

Admin staffing

Filing, planning, and data entry are additional workloads that can keep you constantly caught up. Getting help with admin tasks can take a load off your shoulders and free up your time so you can dedicate your energy to focusing on your primary duties. Whether you need a last-minute executive assistant, receptionist, or a data entry specialist to help you temporarily, hiring qualified ones can help grow your business efficiently, without paper jams, unanswered calls, and other kinds of chaos!

Marketing staffing

Hiring short-term marketing staff can help get your message across! Depending on the product or service you offer, your Tasker can approach your potential customers with offers, promotions, tasters, freebies, and other incentives to encourage them to engage with your business. They can also come up with marketing materials to help your business be known in your desired area. Sending out emails, making cold calls, and interacting with your customers can also be a part of their job.

Healthcare staffing

Outsourcing temporary physicians and nurses can help your business grow. They take care of your employees physically and mentally because healthy members of a team only mean continued success for your business. They can hold medical checkups and consultations for your organisation to ensure that your employees are in tip-top shape. It’s also highly crucial to have healthcare staff if running an office, clinic, school, church, or other institution.

The event is a 30th with a mini athletics day theme - should be a friendly crowd of up to 50 guests. Budget: Cocktail making 6PM - 12PM with a 30 mins dinner break (6 hours inclusive of set up and pack up) + 1 hour travel + 1 hour prep call / admin = 8 hours x $45 $360 including GST If you can bring a helpful friend to assist with dishes and keep you company, I'll bump up to $560 total. Otherwise I'll get some family or friends to help with dishes...or me! If you are working in a pub/bar already where i could meet you and try one of your cocktails, that would be ideal before locking in!

Caitlin (Melbourne party helpers) were an absolute delight! The pre party planning of cocktails and mocktails was made super easy. Jessica and helper were amazing - super helpful, easy going, and just fantastic. Thanks for making my 30th such a great night
