This Hotel Chain Is ‘Hiring’ A Chief Eats Officer To Travel Around The World

The lucky winner will be paid $10,000 to travel to up to eight countries as they document their favorite culinary and cultural stops along the way.

If an all expenses paid trip around the world to eat and share your favorite food photos on social media is on your bucket list, then this might be the job for you.

Hotel chain Ramada by Wyndham is actively “hiring” a Chief Eats Officer (CEO) who will be paid $10,000 to travel to up to eight countries and five continents over the course of three weeks to eat and share their favorite food photos on social media along the way.

“Food is the key that opens the door to new cultures, which is what Ramada by Wyndham is all about, inspiring travelers while connecting them to new global experiences,” brand leader and VP of Operations for Ramada by Wyndham’s Stephanie Kendrick said. “Our lucky CEO will have the chance to fully immerse themselves in the best Ramada and its many destinations have to offer, all while bringing along a global audience to share in every moment of their life-enriching adventure.”

In addition to the $10,000 paycheck, the “CEO Comp Package” as the hotel brand is dubbing the contest will also include a $150 daily travel stipend, accommodations, economy airfare and an upgrade to Wyndham Rewards Diamond membership among other bucket-list travel experiences along the way.

In exchange, the Chief Eats Officer will create content that will be featured on the hotel’s website and social media channels to help inspire other travelers to “sample the world with Ramada.”

With more than 900 Ramada by Wyndham branded hotels around the world, the person who assumes this role must be available to travel internationally for up to three weeks between May-August 2023. There are no details yet as to which countries this person will be visiting.
