Qualified, productive & reliable hospitality staff
Comprehensive screening
Each Sidekick is subject to our rigorous screening process, including interviews, document checks, OH&S evaluations, and tailored inductions. Whether you need Brisbane-based bar staff, wait staff, or more, our process guarantees top talent.
Staff profiles drive accountability
Unlike regular hospitality staffing agencies in Brisbane and Queensland, you pick who works for you. Our Sidekicks are rated and reviewed after every shift, and their profiles include their reliability score and previous hospitality experience.
Talent pools drive retention
Place your top hospitality Sidekicks in talent pools and send shifts for them directly, so you consistently work with the same staff.
Quick and simple to use
Industry-leading fill rates
At any hour of the day or night, submit a request and it will be immediately sent to available local hospitality staff, leading to faster fill rates than other hospitality staffing agencies in Brisbane.
You’re in control
Decide to choose Sidekicks from our hospitality staffing pool or let our system choose for you.
We’re there every step of the way
Our 24/7, 365-day local support team is there to support you, whenever you need it.
Pay less for more
Save 30% on hospitality agency fees
Unlike traditional Brisbane hospitality staffing agencies, we don’t have a branch network or require recruiters to fill all your requests. Our investment in innovation allows us to pass on cost savings to you.
