How We Support Our Talent At Eleven8
In the fast-paced world of events, gig work often gets written off as just a side hustle. At Eleven8, we see it differently. We believe that gig work can open doors—and we’re here to help our people walk through them.
We’re not just filling shifts. We’re building careers. And here’s how we support our team to grow from working gigs to becoming confident, skilled brand ambassadors.
1. We Treat Staff Like Pros from Day One
We take our team seriously. From the moment someone joins Eleven8, we make sure they’re set up for success—with clear direction, strong communication, and opportunities that match their strengths and interests.
We look for people who care about the brands they represent, and we make sure they feel confident when they show up. The result? Sharp, reliable talent that makes an impression.
2. We Give Our Team Room to Lead
You don’t have to have a big title to be a leader. At Eleven8, we help team members grow into leadership roles by offering:
Team Lead spots for top performers
Mentorship and coaching
Hands-on training for special assignments
Regular check-ins and feedback to keep improving
Leadership isn’t about luck—it’s about showing up, learning fast, and stepping up. We help our team do all three.
3. We Recognize Hard Work and Promote from Within
We notice the details. If you’re the person who goes above and beyond, communicates clearly, and keeps things running smoothly onsite—you’ll move up.
Raises and promotions at Eleven8 aren’t random. They’re based on consistent, standout performance. Most of our top-tier staff started where everyone else did—passing out samples or checking in guests.
Show us what you’ve got, and we’ll make sure it pays off.
4. We Build a Real Community
Working gigs doesn’t have to feel transactional. At Eleven8, we’ve created a real sense of community through:
Team get-togethers
Networking events
Behind-the-scenes previews
Appreciation days just for our crew
We believe people do their best work when they feel seen, supported, and part of something bigger. So we put time into making that happen.
5. We Help You Grow Beyond the Gig
Some of our staff want to freelance forever. Others are looking to turn this into a long-term career. Either way, we’ve got your back.
We help team members level up into roles like:
Brand Managers
Event Coordinators
Activation Strategists
Agency Partners
Whatever your path looks like, we’ll help you find the next step.
Final Thoughts
At Eleven8, we don’t just staff events—we grow people. We believe that treating talent with respect, creating space for growth, and celebrating the wins (big and small) is how you build a better industry.
Whether you’re a brand that wants standout staff, or someone looking for more than just another gig—we’d love to connect.
