Something for the weekend: Sleeping could become an illustrious career choice, as bed brand Silentnight and bed linen firm Tielle Love Luxury are both on the hunt for snoozing enthusiasts to join their teams.
Silentnight is looking for not one, but five lucky applicants to join its Pyjama Army. Successful dreamers will be sent a ‘snuggle bundle’ worth up to £600 with items tailored to their individual height, weight and shape. The hard-working recruits will be required to review items such as mattresses, mattress toppers, pillows and duvets. In return for the late nights and early mornings expected of the role, they will receive a £300 payment and a free year-long Netflix subscription.
Meanwhile, Tielle Love Luxury is recruiting a sole sleeper to spend five nights in some of the best hotels in the country and report back how its linen is experienced by guests in each. As well as travel expenses, a £1,000 payment is also on offer. Successfully sleepers will be able to dream and relax in peace at iconic hotels like The Savoy, London, The Artist Residence in Brighton, and Grantley Hall in Ripon.
For both roles, applicants have to complete a short form explaining why they are the perfect snoozer for the job.
A spokesperson at Slightnight said: "Here at Silentnight, it is our pleasure to be able to announce new dream job roles as we search for snuggle enthusiasts to take on the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to sleep on the job.
"As the cold nights draw in, we are looking for candidates to provide honest feedback on our leading range of sleep-inducing products including mattresses, duvets, pillows and mattress toppers."
Here at Employee Benefits, we just hope that the successful applicants put aside their sweet dreams and pay attention while on the job.
