Our Mission
We are on a mission to provide opportunities for people who have been affected by homelessness or faced barriers to work, to access training, mentoring and employment in our crew. Ultimately, our goal is to help end homelessness and reduce inequality by supporting people to access work that works for them.
To do our best by people, we need to do our best by the planet too. That's why we are aiming for Net Zero by 2030, working in partnership with our clients to drive down carbon and reduce waste wherever we can.

We are Connection Crew: a Social Enterprise providing teams of talented people to solve complex production challenges - from building epic stages to crewing iconic events and more - working across a range of sectors including events, construction and TV production.
19 years in the making, with multiple awards and thousands of events under our belt, all our work drives positive change for people and planet.
This role is split across Connection Crew and its sub-brand Stitch.
Stitch is the production company powered by Connection Crew. We specialise in Exhibitions, Live Event Production, Modular Installations, and Media Services. Every project is created to deliver environmentally-sound and socially powerful results, supporting our clients' ESG ambitions, funding training and jobs for people facing social disadvantage and tracking and reducing carbon along the way.
Connection Crew employs 20 people in the office team (including Stitch) and has around 200 crew on site.
Our Culture and Environment
We're a friendly lot, and we enjoy socialising and having a laugh while we're at work.
Our office is open plan with lots of natural light and plenty of plants. There's a big kitchen in the middle for anyone to use. We love cooking and having lunch together there and gathering for the occasional party. We have an annual awards ceremony for our crew, as well as lots of little socials throughout the year. There's sometimes a dog or two around too.
