Work that fits
around your
life as an Actor

Paid, flexible, customer‑facing work for professional actors across the UK.

By Actors,
For Actors.

MONA was born out of a desire to change the actor’s everyday - offering flexibility that once felt like a fairytale.
We know actors are naturals at customer‑facing work: presentable, polished, professional, enthusiastic, and adaptable.

That’s why MONA exists - to connect our acting workforce with fun, well‑paid side‑hustle work that fits around auditions, rehearsals, and contracts.

But MONA is more than just work.
MONA is a community.
We offer regular workshops, meet‑ups, talks, events, and networking opportunities. We also share casting opportunities within our acting community, helping our actors stay connected, supported, and creatively fulfilled.

Testimonials

"Joining MONA is one of the best things I've ever done. Even at the start of my journey into acting they provided me with a steady stream of freelance jobs which not only helped me stay afloat financially in between classes and auditions, but actually evolved to become regular work and viable alternative career options, which I am able to do alongside my acting career. Charlie & Billy have effectively grown to become my representation for freelance gigs and I couldn't be more grateful for the hard work and effort they put in behind the scenes. The volume and variety of roles they have for MONA members is unreal and I couldn't recommend them highly enough."

"MONA opens doors for actors who still need to pay the bills. Many employers in the different industries are not always understanding of the accommodations that actors require when pursuing their professional ambitions. By working alongside MONA I can work, whilst still pursuing my goals as an artist. I am not locked into a supervisor's inflexible rota, and that freedom allows me to book classes and auditions without the fear of reprimand.

MONA has connected me with jobs that are instrumental in my own publicity. They have got me work in Live Streaming studios, which is an incredible way for me to expand on my much-needed exposure."

I signed up with MONA right after having finished drama school, and I could not recommend them enough for the difference they have made in my life as I was navigating the start of my acting career. The very first shift I worked ended up being the company who hired me full-time. Not only was I able to remain a member of MONA thanks to the professionalism of the team, but I also discovered a brand new career path alongside my acting work - that of being a sommelier. My company has provided me with wine courses, certifications and training, and I would have never had this opportunity were it not for the potential that Billy, Charlie and Ellie saw in me when I first sent them a request via an Instagram ad…! Above all, the connections I have made in the acting industry have been invaluable. Truly, MONA has changed my life as an actor in London. Thank you team!

Working with MONA gave me the flexibility I needed, when I needed it most. But beyond that, I've made connections with other professionals who are grinding the early stages of their career just like me. It's a great opportunity to keep the coffers filled while acting stays at the forefront.

"I went back to acting after having some time off to have my 3 children. Initially it was tricky to find interesting flexible work around rebuilding my acting career but then I found MONA. There is always a stream of exciting and well paid jobs on offer. Billy will often also give me a call to ask if I’m available for one off jobs suited to my skillset. These take the form of event management and UCGs. The community is supportive and lovely and there are always workshops on offer and incentives tailored to actor types! All in all such a great thing to be part of. You will be well looked after and I highly recommend."

Any Questions?

Do I need previous hospitality or retail experience?

You don’t need any particular experience to be a part of MONA, but it certainly helps when applying for work with our clients. That said, there are many entry level opportunities across the sectors we work in!

How flexible are the shifts?

Very! Our jobs vary from one-off shifts to regular work.

Where are roles based?

MONA began in London, but since last year has began expanding across the country! We are growing more and more across the UK and excited to offer jobs in towns and cities all over!

Is this suitable alongside auditions and acting contracts?

Very much so - by design. When we present a job to the MONA workforce, we always detail the dates and times you are required to be available, so you always know what you are signing up for and how it might clash with your acting!

What happens if an acting commitment comes up?

For non-acting related last minute dropouts, we normally operate a strike system for repeat offenders (not something that MONA sees very often!). If an acting commitment comes up meaning you’re unable to work, if you’re happy to provide proof of the commitment, we will happily find a replacement with no strike given. We ask for proof just so that this system doesn’t get exploited!

Flexible work.
Supportive community.
Built for actors.
