The crew that turn the lights on. Built for live.

About the firm

A specialist desk, built by industry people.

We do one thing. We place production crew, lighting and sound engineers, stage and tour managers, festival crew and music industry talent into UK promoters, venues, festivals and tours. Permanent placements only.

"They actually know the credits and the reputations. Generalist agencies have nothing on this."

Why we built an industry-only desk.

Live music and touring is not the kind of industry where generalist agencies can compete. The roles run on judgement, credits and relationships. A stage manager who has done arena shows is not the same as one who has done theatre runs. A lighting designer who is tour-ready is not the same as a studio LD. A tour manager who can hold a 60-day European run with a developing arena act is a different person from one who can run a club tour for a debut artist.

Rockstar Agency was built because that level of fluency is unteachable from a job spec. Every consultant on our desk has come from the live industry. We know the credits, we know the cliques, we know the reputations. We know who is touring, who is between projects, who has just come off a residency and who is hungry for the next move.

What we do differently

  • Industry-only desk. No generalist work, no white-collar staffing, no IT. Live music, touring and events only.
  • One named consultant runs your whole search. Brief, shortlist, offer, aftercare. Same person.
  • Credits, references and RTW verified before a CV reaches your inbox.
  • Permanent placements only. No day-rate freelance work.
  • Aftercare runs at day 7, 30 and 90 with both the hire and the hiring manager.

Who we work with

UK promoters, festival operators, touring productions, venues, record labels, music publishers, agency rosters, brand-experience producers and music-industry SaaS / tech businesses. Most of our work is recurring with the same operator partners.
