Case Study: Supporting the Opening of Mishcon de Reya LLPs Oxford Office at Oxford North
Overview

This high-profile launch event welcomed approximately 150 guests, including legal professionals, business leaders, and key stakeholders from across the region.
The Brief
Mishcon de Reya LLP required a professional, polished front-of-house team to ensure a seamless guest experience from arrival through to departure. The staffing requirements included:
Guest hosts to provide a warm and professional welcome
Registration staff to manage check-in efficiently and accurately
Drinks service staff to deliver attentive and discreet hospitality throughout the event
The client’s priority was clear: create an environment that reflected their brand—refined, efficient, and effortlessly welcoming.

Wave Staffing curated a hand-selected team with strong experience in corporate and high-profile events. Each team member was briefed in advance on the event flow, guest profile, and brand expectations to ensure consistency and confidence on the day.
Key considerations included:
A structured and efficient registration process to avoid bottlenecks on arrival
Discreet yet attentive drinks service aligned with the tone of the event
Strong communication between staff and event organisers to adapt in real time
Our team operated with a calm, professional presence, ensuring that every guest interaction felt considered and seamless.

Client Feedback
" Hiring event staff with a new company can be quite a daunting task as I've had very mixed experiences over the years. However, not only were you able to accommodate our last-minute request, additions and changes with professionalism and efficiency but the team on the day were outstanding.
I had to pop out to deal with a last-minute event emergency and left my exec to man the event alone, but your team came in and offered some much-needed support. Isabella mobilised the team quickly with only a short brief which took the pressure off my team and allowed for a seamless delivery for our guests.
The whole team were friendly, professional, and extremely hard working. One of the girls on front desk (I didn't catch her name!), well, she really made a great impression, she picked up the registration process so quickly, was personable and efficient.
All of them were a pleasure to work with but Isabella really showed her strength as a Team Leader, she was attentive, helpful, and anticipated needs before I'd even uttered a word. She has great communication and really went above and beyond to ensure all went smoothly for us.
Working with Wave is easily one of the most positive event staff hiring experiences I've had in 10 years in the industry. You will be our first choice for staffing in Oxford for any future events and I will be sure to recommend to anyone looking for this service with full confidence that they will be as pleased as we were "
