Interesting Fact - Work


Football star, Jermain Defoe is advertising for an executive personal assistant.

(For £60,000 a year, he is looking for someone who is flexible, hands on, capable of multi-tasking, and who demonstrates a high level of discretion and confidentiality.





Do you think you fit the bill?

Well, you will be on call 24/7, and able to travel worldwide at a moment's notice. You will also be expected to organise his and his family's (including his pets) private, social and business calendars.

You will be maintaining his itinerary, arranging all public appearances and travel arrangements, working on business projects including creating a global brand for the Jermin Defoe name, including his clothing line and fragrance, spotting sponsorship opportunities, and growing the online database for his website, Twitter, Facebook, and other social networking platforms, oh and producing his iPhone app.

On top of that the lucky applicant will be tasked with organising his wardrobe with specific designers for special events, booking those events including trips to the theatre, concerts, cinema and musicals, booking his holidays, family outings, creating an inventory for holiday villas, and making sure all his bills are paid, and that he does not forget his friends and relatives' birthdays.

Oh and whilst he is on the holiday you booked for him, wearing the clothes you chose for him, with the friends you helped him to keep, you get to water his plants, check the house(s) and make sure the fridge is stocked before he returns.

Mr Defoe. 60k is not enough, why not simply get married?  Wives do all this with added benefits.)
