Becoming a CEO might sound like a pretty daunting and stressful job, unless CEO stands for “Cultural Exploration Officer.” Noken, a travel company that builds customized trips to select countries, is looking for a new Cultural Exploration Officer to travel to Japan, Portugal, and Iceland. The job description is pretty straightforward, too. Noken wants someone who can generate content about the destination, including writing blog posts about their experience and the other cultures they encounter. The CEO will take one trip per year, and use Noken’s app guide to create content that’s shareable across all of the company’s social media channels.

To be considered for the position, you must be at least 21 years old, have a valid US passport, the flexibility to travel, some basic photography skills, and a yearning for new cultural experiences. Most importantly, however, applicants must post five photos of their hometown’s landmarks and local gems on Instagram, tag @noken, use the #NokenCEO hashtag, and describe why they’d be a good fit for the position.

The app aims to be a one-stop-shop for users trying to book a trip, including activities, hostels, luxury hotels, and restaurant reservations. The app then generates an organized itinerary for your reference, including GPS-based routes to get you where you need to go.

Currently, Noken only offers trips to Japan, Portugal, and Iceland, though it plans to launch new destinations soon.
