If your dream job involves traveling the world, eating ice cream and telling Snoop Dogg which flavors are actually worth trying, you might want to clear your schedule.
Snoop Dogg’s Dr. Bombay ice cream brand is looking for an International Ice Cream Taster, and the three-month gig pays $30,000.
Snoop Dogg seeks ice cream taster for $10K a month
Yes, this is a real job.
The position, posted by Dr. Bombay/Bosslady Foods, is open to applicants around the world. The person hired will be paid $10,000 per month as an independent contractor, with hiring and payments handled through Deel.
And the job description is basically a love letter to ice cream.
“Your mission? Taste. Travel. Discover. Report back to Snoop.”
What does the job entail?
For three months, the lucky hire will travel the world in search of the best and most interesting frozen desserts.
Their assignment includes:
- Discovering unique ice cream and dessert trends
- Tasting desserts in different cities and cultures
- Finding emerging flavors before they become mainstream
- Sharing discoveries with the Dr. Bombay team
- Creating social-media content from their adventures
- Helping develop new flavors, campaigns and experiences
So, yes, you’ll be eating a lot of ice cream.
But you’ll also need to know what you’re talking about.
The company says it isn’t looking for a traditional, stuffy food critic. Instead, it wants someone who is curious about food, plugged into culture, comfortable on social media and capable of turning a scoop of ice cream into a story.
Creators, foodies, marketers, students, entrepreneurs, journalists, chefs and applicants with unconventional backgrounds are all encouraged to apply.
You could help choose Snoop’s next flavor
There’s a pretty major perk attached to the gig: The person hired will help Snoop Dogg choose his next ice cream flavor.
The job comes with a personal connection for the rapper, too.
According to the listing, Snoop’s father grew up on a dairy farm in Mississippi and made ice cream by hand. Snoop later created his own family memories around the dessert, including ice cream stops with his son, Cordell Broadus, after practice.
Snoop and Cordell eventually brought those memories to life through Dr. Bombay.
The brand combines creamy ice cream with sherbet and unexpected flavor combinations, with the company describing its approach as “nostalgia, remixed.”
Now, the brand wants someone to help figure out what’s next.
How to apply
Before you start packing your suitcase, there are a few requirements.
Applicants must:
- Speak English
- Have a valid passport
- Be available for the next three months
Additional languages are a plus.
The position is a three-month independent contractor engagement paying $10,000 per month, for a total of $30,000.
You can apply from anywhere in the world. The job will be hired and paid through Deel, which handles the engagement and payments.
If you’re wondering whether you’ll have to make a TikTok of yourself eating ice cream in order to get the job, the listing does encourage applicants to submit videos, social links and other application materials.
So, if you have a passport, a serious appreciation for ice cream and an opinion about what flavor the world needs next, this could be your chance.
