A Westwood pub is on the look-out for a 'Pub-licist' and responsibilities include drinking beer and tucking into tasty pub grub.

The Hooden Horse on Richborough Close, is advertising the dream job for pub goers and calling for a spokesperson to represent the pub company in return for a £500 salary.

As well as drinking on the job, the Pub-licist will also taste test pies, lasagne, and fish n chips.

The lucky person will also be expected to attend entertainment events, on top of playing the odd game of darts, karaoke or taking part in the pub quiz.

The Pub-licist will also be required to make a number of visits to their local, in order to provide feedback and recommendations to help make their pub the best in the country.

Each task must be reviewed thoroughly and key feedback provided to management, to help the pub stay ahead of competitors and retain its role as the hub of the community.

The winning candidate should know their cask from their craft, be a pro at pub quizzes and have a taste for the finest pub-grub.

Robert Gee, general manager at the Hooden Horse, said: “Nothing beats the atmosphere and comradery of a local pub – and it really is the guests who make it such a great place to be.

“We’re searching for a pub fanatic who just loves a trip to their local, to become our first ever Pub-licist and help us to become the best pub the community.

“So, if you fancy taking part in a pub quiz, sipping on a cold beer or tucking into traditional pub classics – all while getting paid to do so, then we want to hear from you. We’d love it if the UK’s first ever Pub-licist was from Margate!”

Applications are open until Tuesday, November 13.
