Maryland is looking to hire a professional cookie taster to lend their taste buds to the cause of making sure the company’s cookies are the best they can be.

What’s the job?

The official Cookie Taster will be recruited to attend the Maryland Innovation Centre in Edinburgh, where they’ll taste and share their thoughts on Maryland’s entire range of cookies, including those not yet on the shelves.

The lucky candidate will also be able to create their own dream cookie and see it become a real product.

And to top it off, the person picked for the job will be paid £350 for their efforts.
