GoPro and Adrenaline search for Aussie to tour country with $100k

Travelling around Australia is a dream for plenty of people - now there’s a job offering you the opportunity to do it for a year, with $100,000 on hand.

The international border ban is finally over but with the coronavirus situation still creating plenty of uncertainty overseas, Aussies are increasingly turning to their own backyard to get their holiday fill.

Exploring Australia is popular among the young and the old with van lifers and grey nomads adventuring across the country.

But a new competition, launched by adventure experience company Adrenaline and GoPro, will help one lucky person do exactly that, with $100,000.

The competition opened to budding photographers earlier this week and will run until April 1.

The winner will receive a $100,000 contract to participate in and shoot 12 adventures across four campaigns for the adventure marketplace over a year-long period.

The year-long job will give one Aussie the opportunity to travel, skydive, climb and capture content around our wild nation with Adrenaline experiences.

Short list winners, which will include the top 30 finalists, will walk away with a GoProHERO10 Black and a $350 Adrenaline voucher.

Adrenaline brand manager Toni Westlake described the job as the “best in the world”.

“We couldn’t be more excited to offer the ‘Best Job in the World Competition’ to photography-curious and adventure-obsessed Aussies, who are looking to get paid to hone their adventure and content skills for a year,” she said.

“At Adrenaline, we’re all about trying new and adventurous experiences, and this year, we are excited for some new talent to bring the best of Adrenaline’s adventures to life as part of our Adrenaline Crew.”

“We can’t wait to see the creative entries and look forward to embarking on this once in a lifetime opportunity with the lucky winner.”
