What you can expect from DC Site Services in 2025…

Posted on Friday, January 17, 2025

With a month to go until the 2025 Event Calendar launches we wanted to touch base with our crew to give you an idea of what you can expect with regards to pay from April onwards.

Sticking with our commitment to paying one rate for all, and at 50p above the national minimum wage, the Crew and Team Leader rates will look like this…

 

Crew in 2024: £11.94 + £1.44 holiday pay = £13.38 per hour

Crew in 2025: £12.71 + £1.53 holiday pay = £14.24 per hour

Team Leaders in 2024: £12.94 + £1.56 holiday pay = £14.50

Team Leaders in 2025: £13.71 = £1.65 holiday pay = £15.36 per hour

We know the small efforts matter, as such paid briefings and catering/a food provision at camping events are another commitment which will remain the standard for DC Site Services.

The 17th of February is just a stone’s throw away and will be here before we know it, we’re among a handful of contractors who’ll open applications (with the exception of Glastonbury which will open two weeks later) at once on the 17th, giving you the opportunity to plan your entire summer, getting a head start on scheduling transportation and all the logistics which comes with festival life!

As always, if you haven’t logged into your DCSS PAAM profile for a while, give it a crack now and make sure all your details are up to date, ready for the 17th. If you’ve any queries, the office is champing at the bit, ready to help!

I wanted to write personally to say a huge thank you to you and your brilliant team for all your hard work to enable to deliver, in such a short space of time, a wonderful Royal Windsor Horse Show.

When we started the planning, we honestly had no idea whether we could or could not run and had so many changes it must have made it almost impossible for your team – however as always they adapted and overcame the many hurdles that we presented, with a smile and a complete can do attitude and many people are saying that it was one of the best show’s that they have ever been to.

Everybody I have spoken to has said how fantastic the cleaning was and that the loos were immaculate, and the showground looked as good on the last day as it did on the first day – which is exactly what any organiser strives to achieve. Nothing was ever too much trouble and everything was delivered with a smile. Your cleaners were tremendous once again. Even with the date change and the added bonus (!) of COVID everything was delivered on time.
