Looking for more flexibility, fast cash, or new skills? Casual work/temping (temping) could be your golden ticket. While it may not be the traditional 9–5, temporary work in hospo can offer fun opportunities for people who want freedom, fast-paced experience, and a work life that actually fits around life.
Whether you’re in between roles, changing careers, or just want to explore what’s out there, here’s why casual work might be your best career move yet.
1. Freedom & Flexibility
Temping doesn’t necessarily tie you down and that’s the beauty of it. Want to work around study, family, travel, or side projects? Go for it.
With Pinnacle People, you choose your own shifts through our real-time app, giving you full control over when and where you work. Some remote roles even include accommodation, making it easier than ever to say yes to new opportunities. You choose when and where you work – not the other way around.
2. Build Skills (Fast)
Every assignment is a chance to learn something new, whether it’s a different venue, a new role, or navigating a new environment.
It’s hands-on, real-world experience that boosts your resume and your confidence.
3. Avoid Gaps in Employment
Temping is a perfect way to fill in the blanks. When last-minute bookings are last-minute, it’s ideal if you’re unemployed and ready to go now.
Stay sharp, stay paid, and keep moving forward.
4. Grow Your Network
With each assignment, you meet new people and expand your professional circle. Many of our temps are requested again by clients—when you meet the brief and deliver great work, new opportunities follow.
5. Explore New Industries
Whether it’s premium hospitality, events, hotels, or corporate assignments, temping lets you test the waters.
Try something new. You might just discover your next big passion!
