Shark Spotter

If you ask people what they now about sharks, they will most probably start talking about the film `Jaws` and swimming very quickly to the shore. However, the situation is different with Mark. Because of his job, he needs to look for basking sharks off the coast of Scotland and take visitors out on boats to swim with them. It is not just the UK’s largest fish that Mark has to work with. He also sees seals and orcas, and the beautiful, fresh scenery. Mark’s looking for assistants so if you’re feeling brave, just give it a chance and apply.

Lighting Designer

You don’t have to be a world famous artist to bring a stage to life. A lightning designer, Patrick, presses all the buttons and has the ability to make the whole arena dark even though he’s not on stage himself. He does this all the time as part of his job and the last time was when he worked in one of Stevie Wonder’s recent concerts. Lighting Designers are paid to sit in the best seats at the best concerts!

Rollercoaster Designer

Would you ever believe that you coud get a job designing and riding some of the world’s biggest rides? Andrew started to be interested in this idea when he was a teenager and he studied hard at university to do this professionally. He’s now designing all types of rides and he is responsible for making people at the amusement park feel thrilled at every single loop.

Bed Tester

After working hard, you might feel exhausted and you’d definitely need a lie down. Additionally, if you struggle to get up in the morning then we’ve got the job for you. Katherine’s employed to visit mattress factories around the country and try them out for size. Maybe this is the first time you have heard such a job. She’s a Bed-Tester. This is the only job we can think of where pajamas are part of the uniform. It may look very easy but still you need to be careful about certain details like Katherine says “Don’t test beds when you’re tired, because they all feel comfortable!”
