PIZZA THE ACTION
It’s the dream job - you earn some dough by eating your favourite slice
FORGET selling books on a tropical island or earning a crust as the Great Barrier Reef’s caretaker, a Scots firm have just advertised the best job in the world.
Bosses at outdoor oven manufacturers Ooni are looking for international pizza taste testers.
The Broxburn company took to Twitter yesterday to launch their search for candidates with “an enthusiasm for cooking and sharing food with their nearest and dearest”.
The ad said: “Do you love food? Love cooking even more? Keen to create incredible pizza in any outdoor space?
“Ooni are searching for our very own Pizza Taste Testers! Read: yes, you CAN get paid to eat pizza.”
The ideal applicants can “be based anywhere in the world” and will be tasked with “a unique mix of recipe development, product testing and brand ambassadorship – pizza, pizza, and more pizza”.
The job description adds: “Maybe you’re a chef, a food stylist, a pizzaiolo, or a super passionate home cook.
“You’ll be helping us develop and test recipes using our awesome wood-fired pizza ovens, as well as testing and providing feedback on new products, plus showcasing Ooni to the world through your social media accounts and at live events.”
Successful candidates will be sent a pizza oven and can start cooking straight away – and get paid for it.
