Get paid to drink gin, make cocktails and sing karaoke

A new Birmingham experience website is looking to pay one lucky applicant to enjoy a day of food, drink and entertainment in the city.

The position of Brumbassador, advertised by the experience marketplace Yuup, is calling out for Birmingham enthusiasts who have a passion for fun, food and exploring, to sample a selection of experiences created by local businesses, and report back on their city adventures.

In exchange for a £500 salary, the Brumbassador will get to enjoy a selection of the best things to do in Birmingham - which could include disco yoga, macaron making, a gin cruise and hanging out with pups at the cinema.

As part of the job description, the lucky candidate will simply have to enjoy and review each of the experiences and report back to the Yuup team on how they found them.

The role is flexible, and experiences will be tailored to suit the successful applicant - with a range of offerings spanning virtual reality gaming, meditation, glass glow facials, mass karaoke and even circus experiences.

Dominic Mills, co-founder, and CEO of Yuup, said: “We 're beyond excited to be expanding our experience platform into Birmingham, and what better way to celebrate than appointing our first ever Brumbassador!

“With our offering of local experiences provided by small Birmingham businesses, feedback from our Brumbassador will help us to build on our recent launch, so that we can continue developing and providing fun, fantastic opportunities which showcase Birmingham.

“Whether you enjoy watching a film in an alfresco cinema, trying your hand at acrobatics, cuddling puppies, playing board games or cocktail making, this could be the perfect role for you. We 're excited to see the applications we receive - the only stipulation is that you must love Birmingham! ”

To apply for the position, interested applicants should visit: Yuup Brumbassador Application before midnight on 28 July, and explain in 100 words or less why they think they would be perfect for the role.

For anyone not lucky enough to be appointed, Yuup is offering a range of experiences provided by local independent Birmingham businesses.
