What's the fastest game bird in Europe?
This was the question that inspired the founding of Guinness World Records (GWR) back in 1955.
Starting with a single book published from a room above a gym, GWR has grown to become a global multimedia brand, with offices in London, New York, Beijing, Tokyo, and Dubai.
Today, we deliver world-class content, not just through books, but via TV shows, social media, and live events.
Your days will be varied, and you will build knowledge in topics you never imagined, so if you are a solution oriented, creative thinker and have a thirst to continuously learn then this could be the job for you!
Part-time Official Adjudicators are fully trained adjudicators who can represent the Guinness World Records (GWR) brand in all circumstances and can adjudicate all types of records.
The PTOA is not a permanent member of staff and works only in the capacity of Official Adjudicator when required for events, adjudications, TV appearances, and other record initiatives organized by the GWR PR office.
Also the bird was the Golden Plover.
