Attention, chocoholics! The people that gave us Dairy Milk, Curly Wurlys, Crunchies and Chocolate Fingers are after a new recruit. Yep, Cadbury is on the lookout for its next chocolate taster, meaning you could get paid to spend your days gorging on the good stuff. 

As a taster, you’ll be on a panel giving objective, honest feedback on new products and agreeing on how best to describe their taste. Technically, you’ll be working for Mondelez International, which owns Cadbury as well as other chocolate brands like Daim, Milka and Toblerone.

The company wants someone who is up for trying new inventive products and who can be brutally honest when it comes to giving an opinion. You’ll also need to be great at communication and able to build a great relationship with your fellow tasters. 

The role is based in Birmingham and only part-time, so you’ll still be able to pursue any other side hustles you’ve got going on. Reckon you’re up for the job? Find out more on the official job listing here
