A company is offering a job that involves eating sweets
The Canadian firm Candy Funhouse is looking for a new 'Chief Candy Officer' with duties including "leading candy board meetings, being the head taste tester... and all things fun".
The company is offering £64,000 per year for the successful applicant and anybody over the age of five who lives in North America is able to apply.
The vacancy was posted on LinkedIn last month and has already attracted thousands of applications.
Candy Funhouse CEO Jamal Hejazi revealed that he had been surprised by the "golden ticket" themed applications and videos of entire families vowing to share the salary and sweet tasting duties but thinks that the vacancy is a very attractive one.
He said: "Imagine your best memories around candy, and having that every day at work."
