According to the job listing, those interested in the Swift role should be "an energetic writer, photographer and social media pro who can quench an undeniable thirst for all things Taylor Swift with a steady stream of content across multiple platforms".

This comes as Taylor Swift has blown the world away on her Era’s tour, winning multiple awards and smashing records along the way. The job entails identifying why the Cruel Summer singer’s influence is ever-expanding, analysis of the Swiftie fan base.

If you’re interested in the Beyoncé role, the reporter should be proficient with text and video and must be able to capture the record-breaking Grammy recipient’s impact on society.

The brand is clearly looking for someone very experienced in the field, with both jobs requiring five years of experience, with the ability to travel across the world. The jobs also provide a salary range of $21.63 to $50.87 (£17.31 to £40.71) per hour.
