Franchised dealer group Furrows has partnered with its local newspaper to offer a job as a competition prize.

Furrows is offering the role of group e-media specialist, based at its Telford headquarters, to be won through “Just The Job”, a unique job search in association with the Shropshire Star.

The group has Ford, Kia, Mazda and Skoda dealerships.

Furrows managing director Bill Cooper said: “E-media has grown tremendously already, but it’s going to grow beyond all recognition in the next few years, and the successful applicant can grow in this role.”

The process of winning the position up for grabs will see applicants submit their job applications to the Shropshire Star.

Its panel will then shortlist it down to a group of semi-finalists who will be invited to pitch themselves to the judges in front of its Shropshire Star video cameras.
