Is this the worst job in Ireland?
Ryanair are advertising what is possibly the worst job in Ireland right now, assistant to the CEO.
That's right, you'd be working closely with none other than Michael O'Leary.
The description states: "A bright, ambitious qualified accountant is required to assist Ryanair's misunderstood but beloved CEO and manage a wide range of issues."
Interesting…
Those issues include: "Treasury and portfolio management, investment analysis, tax analysis and returns, project management and property development, special project work, general drudgery and mol-ly coddling."
The "essential attributes required" include: "Thick skin, saint-like patience, aversion to bolloxology, own collection of nursery rhymes/bedtime stories, ability to operate without sleep or contact with the outside world, (ego) massage qualifications."
Ah now, what kind of super-human are they looking for at all.
A special note at the end reads: "Dubs fan, Man U supporters and cyclists will not only be automatically excluded from the process, but will be tracked down, tortured and shot. This role is a great opportunity for an ambitious, self motivated qualified accountant to work in a demanding and interesting role. There will be significant opportunities for the candidate if successful, to further and develop their career by promotion into the management team at Ryanair."
A good sense of humour seems to be required also.
Cheeky, multi-tasking saints of Ireland - you have until November 18 to apply.
