The job of the “chief grillderness officer” is simple: hop in an RV, drive around the country, and fire up the grill in iconic state and national parks.

Reynolds Wrap, maker of the well-known tinfoil brand, is hiring for the newly-created “chief grillderness officer” position, a company spokesperson said.

The person selected for the voyage — and a guest of their choice — will stay in national parks across the United States while cooking on a portable outdoor grill.

Reynolds Wrap invited people interested in the position to apply on the company’s website before Aug. 4. The job carries a salary of $10,000, in addition to a gas stipend and other covered expenses.

“Whether it’s a shrimp boil in Acadia National Park, dutch oven mac and cheese at Joshua Tree National Park, or camp fire tacos at the Grand Canyon the winner gets to explore the country’s most beautiful parts and eat their favorite foods while doing it,” a company news release said.

Interested applicants were asked to describe their dream camping trip, their go-to grilling meal and why they would make the perfect “grillnerness officer.”
