From elves for pantomimes to Christmas tree engineers - job-board Monster has recruited for them all during the festive season.

Monster.co.uk has just released a list of the wackiest seasonal jobs which have been advertised on the site, and there is also demand for Christmas illuminators, who help manage the light displays in London, and gamekeepers to look after Christmas partridges.

And there is also room for more traditional roles - a number of adverts on the site were looking for Santas!
