Domino’s is looking for a hand to hold... its pizza. (Yes, you read that correctly)

Hand over your talents!

Domino’s is on the hunt for Australia and New Zealand’s most exquisite set of hands to model the next new range of hot and fresh pizzas hitting the menu.  

Can you remain palm under pressure? Have you got all the right (and left) moves to increase appetite appeal? Most importantly – will you agree not to eat the props before the shoot is over?

Hand-picking the perfect set of fingers will be the task of Domino’s ANZ Head of New Product Development & Innovation Michael Treacy, who said the top-secret products the hand model will hold are hands down some of the tastiest yet.

“We believe every Domino’s pizza deserves perfect presentation, which is why we’re searching far and wide for the perfect pair of strong and steady hands to help us out,” Mr Treacy said.

“From kneading dough to the delicate placement of toppings, we rely on hands every step of the way in the pizza making process! Therefore, when it comes to the last step – marketing – it’s important our new pizza products are shot in the right hands,”

“Why? Because this role is no easy feat! Executing the perfect cheese pull back-to-back requires both the grace of a ballerina and the determination of a boxer.

 “Applicants must have Jedi-like control and the ability to freeze the hands to make the shot come to life, all without breaking a sweat under the pressure of the bright lights!”

The Company is searching for someone who has 18+ years in pizza holding experience; has hands so clean and soft you could butter garlic bread with them; and can lift a maximum of four pizza slices per hand (while holding very still for long periods).

Domino’s ANZ People Business Partner Matt Baldwin said that offering unique job opportunities like this is what Domino’s is all about.

“We’re proud to provide joyful experiences for pizza lovers, including the chance to get paid for holding our hand-crafted pizzas,” Mr Baldwin said.

“The successful applicant will receive $100 an hour for their time, and a rare, once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to spend a day at Domino’s Global Headquarters in Brisbane modelling the next big Domino’s menu innovation.

“The chosen Hand Model will also receive a tour of Domino’s top-secret Innovation Kitchen, spend time in the ‘Say Cheese’ professional photo studio, and of course, enjoy a pizza lunch as a thanks for all their hand work.”

And since this is top-secret stuff, the successful applicant must also be willing to pinkie promise (AKA sign an NDA) that they won’t share confidential menu information following their visit.  

Think your hands have got what it takes? To apply, candidates must complete a survey and submit a photo of their best pizza hand modelling poses or a 30 second video demonstrating their pizza holding skills!
