How do I increase employee retention in a Events & Experiential Marketing team?
The first step in improving retention is understanding why people leave.
Regular one-to-one conversations, employee feedback and engagement surveys can help identify what's driving turnover within your business.
Some of the most common factors influencing retention include:

- A lack of pay increases

Once these challenges are identified, businesses can focus on addressing the root causes. Common retention strategies include:

Is a specialist Events & Experiential Marketing recruiter more effective than in-house recruitment?
The answer depends on your hiring goals, internal resources and the complexity of the role you're recruiting for.
For many organisations, an in-house recruitment function can be highly effective and provides complete ownership of the hiring process.
However, if you're hiring for niche skill sets, facing a competitive talent market, or simply need additional support, a specialist recruitment partner can offer access and expertise that may be difficult to replicate internally.
Because specialist recruiters spend years building industry networks, they can often:
- Access hidden talent pools
- Circumvent market competition to headhunt right-fit talent directly
- Maintain a team of high-quality temp staff who can hit the ground running in under 24 hours
For critical hires, specialist skill sets or time-sensitive requirements, partnering with a specialist recruiter can provide valuable market insight and a greater level of hiring confidence.
Great brand experiences start with great Events and Experiential Marketing talent.
