Three ways to get crew.

Ushers, hosts and promoters. Traffic marshals, zone and transport managers. Senior production and operations people. All in one community.

Two ways to hire

Post it yourself, or hand it to me.

Route 01 · No fee

Post the role yourself

Post in the right group with the job template. People contact you and you hire them directly. HUSTLERS is a community, not an agency.

  • Real UAE roles only, freelance or permanent
  • 240 AED a day minimum, or the post does not go up
  • Roles that conflict with our ethical values are not posted
  • Jobs only in the job groups, no ads

Route 02 · Paid

Hire me to run the crew

I work for you as a freelancer and run the crew side of your event, start to finish, until the crew have been paid. For the rate, message me on WhatsApp.

  • Hiring and selecting the crew
  • Training and briefing before the doors open
  • Running them on every live day
  • The close-out, until the crew payment goes out
  • The same values rule: no work in a niche that conflicts with our ethics

Why there is a floor

The crew is the backbone of every UAE event.

Their rates are the first thing this market squeezes. So the rule is written down and I hold it: a role under 240 AED a day does not get posted. It is a standard for what goes up in the community, not a legal minimum wage and not an industry average.

Route 02 · Crew brief

Tell me about the event.

The event and venue, the dates and shift hours, the roles and how many of each, and the day rate you have in mind. Rough numbers are fine. I reply within a working day, and we talk before any price.

Crew brief

Per person, per day. 240 is the floor.
Straight answers

What companies ask before they post.

Where can I find event crew in the UAE?

HUSTLERS is one place to look. It is a WhatsApp community of 500+ event professionals in the UAE, and I, Ibrahim Muhammad Naeem, founded it. It has separate groups for event jobs, traffic and transport crew, and senior production and operations people. You can post a vetted role in the right group yourself at no cost, or hire me as a freelancer to run the crew side of your event, from hiring to the final crew payment.

Does it cost anything to post a job?

No. Posting a role in the right group costs nothing, and nobody pays a fee to get a job through HUSTLERS. The one paid option is hiring me to run the crew for a project. For the rate, message me on WhatsApp.

What should an event job post include?

The nine lines of the job template: the job, the event and venue, the city, the dates and shift hours, the day rate in AED, the payment date, the requirements such as permit or visa type, languages, experience and dress code, the company or agency, and how to apply. Crew decide from the post, so a post with the day rate and the payment date on it answers their first two questions.

Does HUSTLERS vet workers or check permits?

Posts are checked against the community’s rules before they go up, and Traffic & Transport and the Executive Circle screen people before adding them. Nobody’s visa or work permit is checked, and nobody guarantees a job or a payment. HUSTLERS is a community, not an agency or an employer: it does not supply staff or promise a headcount. Whoever hires confirms the right to work, and crew should check every job themselves before they go.

Can I hire someone to run the whole crew for my event?

Yes, I do. I take it on as a freelancer, as a paid project: hiring, training, the live days, and the close-out until the crew payment goes out. I have 12+ years in UAE live events and I founded HUSTLERS. I work to the same values rule as the community. The price depends on the project.
