A BRITISH charity worker has won a global competition for ‘The Best Job In The World’.
Ben Southall outclassed 35,000 rivals to win the role as caretaker for Hamilton Island in the Great Barrier Reef.
The 34-year-old will get £75,000 for the six month long part-time job with Tourism Queensland.
Perks include a rent-free ocean-front villa with pool and return air fares.
In between snorkelling and driving his golf buggy round the island he will be responsible for a weekly blog, video diary and photo gallery documenting the wonders of the reef.
Accepting his award today, he said: “I hope I can sell the reef as much as everybody is expecting.”
Work starts in July and his uniform, which he received today, consists of a wet suit and snorkel.
