We specialise in finding staff for temporary work in airside retail outlets. We look for candidates who will thrive working in such a fast-paced environment, and who are friendly and outgoing enough to provide an excellent customer experience. The ability to converse in different languages is an advantage in airside roles.

We do a lot of work with World Duty Free, so candidates must be comfortable selling alcohol and tobacco in addition to fragrances, cosmetics, skincare, confectionery and souvenirs.

We work with many luxury brands specialising in fashion, fragrance, makeup and skincare, working in airports, retail stores and shopping malls. We are looking for candidates with experience, a passion for and knowledge of their specialism.

• Fragrance – we get a lot of promotional work for high end and niche fragrances that require a special kind of candidate who is willing to engage knowledgeably with potential customers.
• Makeup – our candidates have a passion for cosmetics, an excellent understanding of colour matching and makeup, and are comfortable doing makeovers on customers.
• Skincare – we look for candidates with a good knowledge of skincare who will be able to recommend the best products for different skin types. Knowledge of common allergies to ingredients an advantage, although product training will be given.
