Case Study: Glamorgan County Cricket Club reduces agency costs and simplifies scheduling with Deputy

Deputy is helping Glamorgan Cricket Club become a top local events venue

Glamorgan County Cricket Club (GCCC) in Cardiff has grown from a sports venue into a busy local events space hosting conferences, concerts and dinners. With food and drink making up a large share of turnover, the club found its spreadsheet-based rostering could not cope with high student staff turnover, variable availability and events with 10–250 people, leaving managers spending excessive time emailing and manually covering last-minute absences.

After adopting Deputy, managers and staff quickly embraced the app’s skills- and availability-based scheduling and easy shift cover features. Deputy cut GCCC’s reliance on outside agencies, lowered associated staffing costs, improved employee engagement by giving staff clear tasks and advance availability tools, and made rostering far faster and more reliable.
