Tesco is advertising a vacancy for what is thought to be Britain’s first professional Christmas tree lights untangler.
The ideal candidate should be “persistent and patient” and able to untangle three metres of Christmas lights in less than three minutes.
The successful applicant will be based at a store in Wrexham, north Wales, where they can expect to untangle up to 60 sets of lights a day for frustrated customers.
A Tesco spokeswoman said: “To help locals enjoy the festive season and relieve some of the stresses often associated with the yuletide season – specifically tangled tree lights – Tesco has launched a search for someone who can conquer one of the most frustrating jobs of Christmas.
“The position will require a friendly, helpful demeanour, oodles of patience and of course, the innate knack to be able to untangle even the most scrambled of wires.”
The retailer also says the ideal candidate should be passionate about Christmas.
The service will be free to customers and offered on a first come, first served basis.
