If you missed out on a starring role as an extra in Harry Potter at the dizzy heights of the movie franchise’s success, don't put down your wand away just yet: you can still join the wizarding world.

The Making of Harry Potter is recruiting us humble muggles to come and work at the Warner Bros studios.

It’s not quite Hogwarts (Watford, to be precise) but it’s a magical opportunity for anyone who still wants to immerse themselves in the world of Harry Potter – and let’s face it, who doesn’t?

The studios are hiring for three positions: Interactor, Sales Associate and Warehouse Associate.

According to their site the roles will be something like this:

“Our knowledgeable Interactors are full of behind-the-scenes filmmaking secrets which they are eager to share, and our Retail Associates help visitors find the perfect souvenir following their special day with us.”

Warehouse Associates will be responsible for ensuring the magical inhabitants of the studios get safely from place to place: sadly, it’s wands aren’t provided to assist with levitation. Think forklift trucks.

Successful candidates could find themselves doing their 9 to 5 in the midst of the Forbidden Forest, the Great Hall and the Hogwarts Express. It certainly beats a desk.
