Hotel booking site gives people the chance to sleep on the job - as Chief Pillow Officer

Fancy getting paid for your dream job? Well, now is your chance. Hotel booking platform hoo is on the hunt for a “Chief Pillow Officer” to test pillows over 52 two-night stays at a variety of UK hotels.

In the newly-created role, the professional pillow tester will help inform customers’ decision-making - by snoozing on the job. The successful applicant will get paid £100 for each stopover, in exchange for comments on the size and firmness of the hotels’ pillows.

They will also be asked to give hotels - including Luton Hoo, The Chester Grosvenor & Spa, The Chesterfield Mayfair, and the Carnoustie Golf Hotel & Spa - a star rating based solely on the pillows. It comes after research found 75 per cent of travellers said bad sleep can ruin their holiday.
