Butlin's searching for family 'Funbassadors' to sample resorts - and be paid £1,000

Holiday park operator Butlin’s is recruiting its first ever family of ‘Funbassadors’ to sample facilities and report the findings back to bosses.

The role which is packed with perks includes three all-expenses-paid holidays across its portfolio of resorts and a cash prize of £1,000.

New recruits will have some big jobs on their to-do list, including sampling the huge splashworld swimming pools, feeding back on the funfair activities and sitting front row at some of Butlin’s biggest live shows which boast top talent like Diversity, Fleur East and Stephen Mulhern.

Butlin’s identified the need for the Funbassadors role following recent research which revealed that the average child aged 6-13 wants double the amount of quality time with their parents.

Psychologist Emma Kenny said: “During the day-to-day, we quite easily slip into routines and forget to make space for that quality family time together. A break away, whether it’s midweek or weekend, is a great opportunity to switch off and engage in fun activities with your kids, and Butlin’s is the ultimate destination for that.

“The findings show two thirds of children claim their parents are preoccupied with work, with 30 percent of them constantly distracted by their phones. Getting away to a resort like Butlin’s is the perfect antidote to bring the family back together.”

Mike Godolphin, entertainment director at the park operator, added: “Butlin’s prides itself on being the home of entertainment, with great value breaks that are perfect for all the family.

“We’re excited to welcome our Funbassadors to the team. They’ll have an amazing time experiencing all of our resorts’ endless family-friendly fun – whilst getting paid for it!”

The competition is now live and runs until January 31. Enter via the website at www.butlins.com/funbassadors.

Butlin’s offers great savings on all family breaks from £69 and its current deal is now on with low deposits from just £10pp and extra discounts off selected breaks.
