What's better than staying in your PJs all day, eating leftovers over the bin and taking part in a board battle with your nearest and dearest? Well now you can get some cold hard cash in return for a dose of healthy competition.

John Adams, a UK-based toy and games company, has sent out a search party for board game-lovers to play an assortment of retro board games such as Scribblish, Go For Broke, Ghost Castle, Scrabble, Rummikub and Silly Sausage.

As the first ever official, ahem, Board Director, you'll be paid £500 to sit back, relax and take down your competitors. All you have to do is provide feedback on the experience to John Adams.

You can apply now at https://www.johnadams.co.uk/board-director/. The deadline is midnight on Monday 6th December and the board winner will be announced on Friday 10th December.

Simon Pilkington, group managing director at John Adams, said: "For those who have a passion for all things gaming, we’re seeking demon dice rollers and sophisticated shufflers to step up and take our newly created role of ‘Board Director’.

"The only work involved is playing board games and spending quality time at home with loved ones in your comfies, what could be better at Christmas?

"At John Adams we love bringing people together through our games, and as part of the new role, we want feedback on all gaming experiences, so we can continue to innovate and ensure the best playing experience for our customers.

"In return, we will pay a good ‘salary’ and provide a selection of classic retro-inspired IDEAL® games for our ‘Board Director’ to keep and play forever!

"Think you’ve got what it takes? Please get in touch, and successful applicants will be notified shortly to get the ‘dice’ rolling."
