I mean if ever a dream job did exist, this might just be it!

Tetley Tea are looking out for two lucky people to travel the world drinking and tasting tea. It’s a hard task, but there’s bound to be a few people interested.

The company are advertising for two Graduate Trainee Tea Buyers, located at Tetley’s Headquarters in London.

The training does sound tough…sampling up to 300 teas a day to develop the palette.

Once complete the buyers are sent across the world, to visit different tea growing regions to learn more about where tea comes from and how it is made.

Other responsibilities include supporting buyers, organising tastings and monitoring stocks in the supply chain.

To apply for the role you really do need to be a tea lover, plus Tetley require a 2:2 or above in any degree discipline.

Strong analytical skills, the ability to work well under pressure, a knowledge of Excel and excellent communication skills are desired too.

Could this be your dream job? If so you must act quick, the application process closes today (Friday 5th November) Learn more HERE.
