YOU Magazine Fashion Beauty Celebrity Health Life Relationships Horoscopes Food Interiors Travel Home Food Tetley is looking to hire someone to drink tea and travel the world By You Magazine - November 2, 2021 We’re a nation of tea-lovers, but imagine if drinking tea was an actual job you could get paid for… We’d be rich beyond our wildest dreams! As it happens, tea company Tetley is hiring someone to do just that. Alamy Tetley wants to recruit two graduate tea buyers – full-time roles that involve sampling different varieties of tea. Whoever gets the role will eventually progress and have the opportunity to travel around the world to various growing tea regions. Those lucky enough to be hired will get to try up to 300 different brews a day, in order to complete their training to become a ‘tea master’. Once training has been completed, the graduate buyers will go on to build relationships with suppliers and growers of tea around the world. They’ll also be expected to predict the next big tea trends. Day-to-day responsibilities for the role include supporting buyers and assistant buyers, organising tea tastings and working with the shipping department to monitor stocks in the supply chain.

You must also have strong planning, time management and organisational skills. A spokesperson for Tetley said: “10,000 hours of training across 450 skills need to be completed to be considered an expert, and that’s what we’re offering. You don’t need to have a refined palate when you’re starting out, this is developed through our training and mentoring programme.” Alamy There hasn’t been a clear indication of what the salary might be, although we do know it will be ‘competitive’ and that the positions are based in West London. Applications to become a graduate tea buyer close on 4 November, so you need to be quick. You can apply for the job here.
