“Warwick Castle is hiring a bottom-class poo grader to run the Ploppy Shop in its Horrible Histories® Mediaeval Mayhem village which truly portrays the sights, sounds and smells of yesteryear.
The job is not for the faint-hearted as the successful candidate must be able to grade poop and blend the very best examples into poo-fume or eau de toilet for visitors to ‘enjoy’ as part of Horrible Histories® Mediaeval Mayhem experience. Mediaeval Mayhem is home to a bedraggled troupe of colourful characters plagued by poverty and pestilence, sharing the funniest bits of history along the way.
A central element of the role includes ensuring that all the poo is made from 100% natural ingredients and is ethically sourced to ensure the Foul Fragrance is as gruesome as possible.
General Manager of Warwick Castle, Geoff Spooner, says: “Horrible Histories® returns to Warwick Castle this spring and to ensure it’s as life-like and accurate as possible, we are looking to hire an expert poo grader. It’s not a job for just anyone – some will feel it’s a waste, others will think it’s a foul matter – but for the right candidate, there’s a career ladder to climb starting from the bottom.”
He added: “We want someone who’s not afraid to get down and dirty, who can muck in and get on with the job. We’re not fooling around – this is a serious job, with rewards for the right candidate.”
Hurry – applications close at 12 noon on April 1, 2015.
