IN WHAT is possibly the only job where you're required to show up drunk, hangover supplement company alc-eze is searching for Australia's first Chief Hangover Officer (CHO).
The job is described as "part adventure, part discovery and all about solving a relatable problem: hangovers".
The company assures us it is a real job, and it comes with a salary of $100K per year pro-rata, a C-Suite title and all-expenses-paid international travel to trial the latest hangover cures.
"The CHO will travel to destinations like Sicily, Puerto Rico, Germany, Estonia, Thailand and Japan, testing out remedies such as vodka-soaked socks, dried bull penis snacks, and lemon under the armpits," the company said.
They accurately noted that the role "isn't for the faint hearted", with some of the potential remedies "a little less conventional than others".
Research reveals that among Aussies who endure hangovers, the average is 39 per year.
Meanwhile, 36% admitted to going to extreme lengths to cure their hangovers.
Applicants must be over 18 and be experienced drinkers.
In addition to the generous salary, if the new CHO uncovers a new secret ingredient that is added to the alc-eze hangover product, which is based on Nashi pear, they'll also receive a healthy $20K bonus.
Your bank account may thank you - your liver, not so much.
