Something for the weekend: If you’re a self-confessed adrenaline junkie, who could ride roller coasters all day long, then the role of theme park tester at Universal Orlando Resort’s new Epic Universe Park could be for you!

To celebrate tickets for its new park going on sale, AttractionTickets.com has begun its search for a thrill seeker to test and rate the new rides at the Epic Universe park in Florida, USA.

One lucky UK resident, along with a friend of their choice, will be one of the first to visit and test the new theme park. They will also get to visit all of the theme parks at Universal Orlando Resort for free, have their flights and transfers paid for, have an onsite hotel stay at the park provided, and receive $1000 (£771.85) of spending money for them and a friend.

The successful theme park tester will be required to document the best rides, rating them on scariness, “loopiness” and everything else desired in a great theme park ride. They will also need to review the top snacks, photo opportunities and entertainment offerings at the park.

Rollercoaster fans can apply for the role by emailing a video, lasting no longer than three minutes, explaining why they think they would be a great theme park tester, with applications closing on Friday 15 November.

Oliver Brendon, chief executive officer of AttractionTickets.com, said: “We’re looking for someone who’s up for riding all of the best rides, from the Stardust Racers Rollercoaster in Celestial Park to the Curse of the Werewolf coaster in Dark Universe, alongside boat rides, screen experiences, and everything else Universal’s Epic Universe has to offer.

“It goes without saying that the ideal candidate will be happy to travel to Orlando for a full week, meaning that alongside a craving for adventure, you’ll also have the practical essentials like an up-to-date passport, ESTA and valid travel insurance. Lastly, we’re looking for someone who’s not camera-shy, as we’d love to share photos and videos of your adventure on our social media channels and website.”

This sounds like an exhilarating opportunity to us at Employee Benefits, with some great benefits too!
