There is a 'rubbish' job opportunity for one eco-friendly celebrity.

There is more to being a celebrity than just parties and paparazzi. True job satisfaction comes from knowing that you've made a real difference to your country.

Which is why Keep Britain Tidy is looking to give one celebrity the chance to be our ambassador and help give England a facelift.

In an unusual step, Keep Britain Tidy has taken out a job advert in the national press as we search for an iconic figure to champion our cause.

Applicants must:

  • Hate litter
  • Have a passion for cleaner, greener places
  • Be willing to give up two days a year for free
  • Be able to inspire others
  • Be famous, not infamous

In return the star would be forever linked with Keep Britain Tidy’s efforts to make our country a better place to live.

With past celebrity faces ranging from ABBA to Atomic Kitten and Mark Bolan to Morcambe and Wise, the new ambassador will join a long line of iconic figures showing their support for the fight against litter.

Phil Barton, chief executive of Keep Britain Tidy said: “We a searching for a celebrity that hates litter and wants to roll up their sleeves and get stuck in.

“They need to be able to inspire others and use their celebrity status to influence and educate everyone who litters, whoever they are and wherever they live.

“We are used to hearing famous people make comments championing the anti litter cause but this is really their opportunity to put their money where their mouth is."
