King Charles has a lucrative job opening for someone who can assist him and the other royals in responding to letters addressed to them.

The new king is looking for a Head of Royal Correspondence to assist him and his wife, as well as the Prince and Princess of Wales, Prince William and Kate Middleton, in responding to letters sent to them. According to 7News, the position will be based at Buckingham Palace and will pay up to $100,000.

It’s a five-day-a-week job that lasts 37.5 hours. The new king receives a “high volume” of letters that must be “thoughtfully and sensitively handled.”

The person chosen for the position must respond with “standard replies,” though some cases may necessitate “individually crafted responses.”

The successful candidate for the Head of Royal Correspondence position will be in charge of how the letters are handled.

The job advertisement read:

The role requires someone with “strong people management skills” and a “desire to maintain rigorous standards.” The successful applicant must ensure that the team is “well-run, motivated, and delivering to agreed quality and timescales. You will maintain a first-class correspondence function in all that you do.”

The position is described as permanent, and the interview will take place on November 28.

A security officer for a 12-hour shift is also needed by the royal household. Its security officers perform an important function: “maintaining a safe and secure environment throughout the Palace of Holyroodhouse.”
