Our International Staff Services.

An increasingly global corporate space calls for suitably global event staff – a reality to which, here at Kru Live, we assist a broad range of event, public relations and experiential agencies to adapt. Kru Live is an independent specialist staffing agency with a long standing track record of catering with aplomb to all manner of international staffing requirements.

Kru Live Can Supply the Most Relevant, Professional and Capable Staff

However large or small the given promotional event, whatever the nature of the event and whatever the client’s objectives, Kru Live can supply the most relevant, professional and capable Brand Ambassadors, hospitality and corporate event staff, actors and models. We can also provide specialist performers and entertainers through our database, Kru Talent International.

While Kru Live is especially known in the UK for its ability to supply Brand Ambassadors in line with all manner of both universal and specific agency and client requirements, our commitment to providing the best possible experiences extends to the provision of many other types of staff.

Your organisation may be seeking friendly and professional hospitality staff for its latest global launch, or there may be a pressing requirement for corporate event personnel, suitably styled for just the right ‘look’ at a VIP greeting party, high-end award ceremony or global seminar.

We have long provided presenters, chaperones and bilingual staff for international brands holding a major product launch, seminar or symposia in the UK, for which our service has been a suitably bespoke one to brief.

However, global brands also turn to us for seasoned and dependable promotional models who can embody just the right characteristics for their latest photo or video shoot or assist in the entertainment of guests or the management of an event.

We have worked with the Kru team for over a year now with Oculus and I can honestly say that they are a key part of the team, they are always reliable, easy to get hold of at any time and never come to us with an issue that doesn’t have a solution. The campaign has been managed brilliantly with great staff and coverage from the field team. Not only do they manage and motivate staff well but also come to us with solutions in a professional and timely manner.

Jack Morton Worldwide

“We set Kru Live the very challenging task of delivering a range of ambassadors across a variety of projects, in 13 cities across the UK over a very busy and competitive 6 week event period, and we were very pleased with the results! The Kru Live team became the face of the DHL brand, so selection and training was paramount and we worked well together to make that happen. I was very impressed by the casting days, and the video entries were a really great way for us to be involved with selection which built a level of comfort early on in the process, and their systems made the on the day management much more efficient. Kru Live have become a trusted partner and we continue to collaborate and work with Kru Live on all our current and future events”.
