The path to success in modeling is not always clear-cut. The industry is highly competitive, with countless models worldwide vying for the same opportunities, which makes it difficult to break into the scene and establish a successful career. Leading event staffing agency Runway Waiters (RWW) now provides an alternate route for models to take their careers to the next level.
Runway Waiters is an event staffing agency hiring models as staff for luxury events. From hot bartenders to party staff, event staff, hot bartenders, wait-for staff, cater waiters, brand ambassadors, and promo models, RWW works with agency models to help bring a unique and memorable experience for every attendee. They also use this to help models grow their careers and earn extra cash.
“Modeling jobs can be quite inconsistent, especially during the first years of development, as the model is still trying to build a name and get their career off the ground. We wanted to create something that works for them during the downtime where they can earn additional income and develop more skills, and even grow their network. RWW is a staffing company dedicated to assisting models in enjoying the modeling business and their passion by removing the challenge of juggling demanding work schedules with irregular casting calls. We provide event-based work that is flexible, fun, and well-paid,” says Ernest Strum, the president of Runway Waiters.
One of the unique aspects of working with RWW is the opportunity to work at high-profile events for luxury brands. These events include product launches, VIP parties, and fashion shows. The models get to interact with high-profile clients and network with industry professionals in these settings, which can lead to new opportunities and career advancement.
Runway Waiters has worked with top-tier companies, including Ferrari, Bentley, Maserati, Rolls Royce, and Lamborghini, for car unveiling.
They have also worked at notable events like New York Fashion Week, Sundance Movie Festival, Coachella Festival, Miami Art Basel, Emmys, Grammys, Veuve Clicquot Polo Classic, special celebrity occasions, luxury hotel openings, Hamptons fundraisers, and multi-million dollar real estate listings (open houses, private viewings, client meetings, etc.)
Runway Waiters is currently in New York, Miami, Los Angeles, Dallas, Chicago, Houston, and San Francisco. RWW is working on expanding to other locations in the US and possibly out of the country, connecting models with jobs they can do during their downtime, and helping corporations plan unique events. Runway Waiters works exclusively with agency-signed models. They get their models from leading agencies like NEXT, Vision, Wilhelmina, and Tom Ford.
As the event staffing and planning industry evolves, Runway Waiters has created a way to benefit both the corporate world and the modeling industry. They are helping models grow their careers outside the field and build on their network. Runway Waiters’ services include event staff and bartenders, promotional staff, promo models, and catering. Their approach makes them stand out and has helped them become one of the leading event staffing agencies in the country. RWW has developed a reputation for excellence and is known for its commitment to providing exceptional service to clients.
