A lucky student had the best summer job ever by being flown to the US and paid to party on yachts all summer.

Ella Crockett got a job as an ambassador for fashion brand Jack Wills as she took a break from studying at Newcastle University.

The 21-year-old was sent out to Nantucket Island on the east coast of the United States and told to promote the label among the rich.

Ella said: "It's 100% the best summer I've ever had."

One of her main jobs involved organising a "nautical chic" themed bash on a yacht.

She said: "We had a DJ for the whole day on board, followed by a sunset dinner party."

During her time there she met other promoters - known as 'seasonnaires' - and together they drank plenty of champagne, all in the name of work.

She told The Tab: "We also did a brewery takeover with Cisco brewery, which is famous on the island, where we were doing Jack Wills giveaways.

"We also got our DJs to do a set there, it was so fun.

"Also, every Monday there was a night called 'Jack in the Box' at a place called Chicken Box.

"It was basically a huge Jack Wills night that everyone on the island would go to."

However Ella said partying for a living was hard work.

She said: "The social aspects like the events were a definite perk of the job and I did have loads of fun.

"But there was a lot of hard work involved too.

"It's not one of those jobs you can just go home and relax after the work is done.

"It was a 24-hour job, seven days a week, but I loved it so it didn't really feel like work."

Ella is originally from St Albans in Hertfordshire but is living in Newcastle completing her degree.
