'Get the Shifts' founder Hannah Wrixon

SHANNON-based ‘Get The Shifts’ has announced it will provide a further 700 casual roles in hospitality and events over the next 12 months, bringing the total number of roles it has provided to more than 1,200 since it was founded in 2016.

The tech-centric staffing solution is disrupting the sector by supporting bars, restaurants, cafes, festivals, and other hospitality and events businesses to source experienced, temporary hospitality staff in their area on demand.

The 700 new roles will be available to bar staff, wait staff, event staff, promo staff, baristas, mixologists and kitchen porters.

With full training provided, ‘Get The Shifts’ is encouraging anyone who would like to earn a flexible, hassle-free, extra income to apply.

Company founder Hannah Wrixon said: “Get The Shifts is on track to secure 60 per cent of the casual hospitality market by the end of the year and our plans to provide another 700 roles comes as a result. From trying to forecast the right number of staff on any given day, to combating no-show employees, and from talent shortages to the fluid nature of labor in the industry, effective staffing is a historic problem for hospitality businesses. The reality is that businesses are in constant need of reliable, trained staff. ” she explained.
