Premier Inn looking for staff to visit Christmas markets and drink mulled wine

If sipping mulled wine and snacking on festive treats while wandering down the twinkly lights of some of Europe’s most iconic markets sounds like a dream job to you, then you might just be in luck.

Premier Inn is on the hunt for five new staff to become Christmas Market Testers, covering travel costs, hotel stays and even providing spending money.

The lucky individuals who land the roles will be expected to test out Christmas markets in locations in the UK, Ireland and Germany.

The hotel chain will also provide a free stay, including breakfast, in a Premier Inn hotel close to the market they’re visiting.

The workers will then have to report back on how they found the markets, by sharing their experience of their chosen market, and having taken photos of the lights, stalls and decorations.

Simon Ewins, Managing Director at Premier Inn, said: "Here at Premier Inn, we love all things Christmas – and visiting a Christmas market is the perfect way to visit a new city, which is why we want to send five Christmas fans to some of the UK and Europe’s best festive spots to report back, safe in the knowledge they can rest easy with us after a busy day exploring the stalls.

"Christmas markets have gone from strength to strength in recent years and so we know our official Christmas Market Tester role will be a dream job for many, with the opportunity to explore markets in the UK, Dublin and Germany all on offer."

Applications for the roles are now open and will close on November 28, 2021.

To apply, you need to describe your last Christmas market visit and what you enjoyed about it most in a maximum of 250 words, by visiting this link.
