Founded from real experience
A practical solution created by people who understand
the pressures of running a business.
Our founders’ story
An idea born from a very
real staffing challenge.
The idea for FlexyStaff began in 2022 when Paul Lewin was
operating a busy hospitality and holiday accommodation
business. Demand could change quickly, but finding dependable
additional staff at short notice was rarely straightforward.
During a conversation with Paul Wheeldon, Paul Lewin described
how valuable it would be to have a trusted pool of people ready
to support businesses when demand increased.
“In a perfect world, businesses would have hundreds of suitable
staff available when they needed them.”
That simple idea became the starting point for FlexyStaff.
Combining Paul Lewin’s operational and hospitality experience
with Paul Wheeldon’s background in technology, websites and
digital systems, the two founders began developing a better
way for businesses and workers to connect.
FlexyStaff was not created as a traditional recruitment agency.
It was built as a practical, technology-led staffing app
designed around the everyday needs of businesses and people
looking for flexible work.
