the DOUGLAS, An Autograph Collection Hotel, Seeks Storyteller-in-Residence

Creative and personable explorer will uncover the hotel's stories through social media

Parq Vancouver, the city's newest entertainment resort, is anchored by two luxury hotels - the JW Marriott Parq Vancouver and the DOUGLAS, an Autograph Collection Hotel. Now, the DOUGLAS - a first-to-market hotel offering unexpected delights and impressive discoveries at every turn - is ready to elevate awareness even further. The Storyteller-in-Residence will light up social media with stories, news and behind-the-scenes insights.

The chosen explorer will help craft the story of the DOUGLAS, a timeless property whose balanced dialogue of nature and city aims to promote growth of the body and mind. As the hotel's resident ambassador, the Storyteller will live in the DOUGLAS for 30 days while sharing his or her adventures through compelling social media posts consisting of photography, videography and written content. Posts will be distributed across the DOUGLAS' social channels, as well as other partner channels and media.

The full experience includes round-trip flights for one person from place of residence in Canada to Vancouver; complimentary residence for 30 days, starting on November 6, 2017; an exciting itinerary that fully immerses the Storyteller in all aspects of life at the DOUGLAS. They will also receive $5,000 as a thank you for creative service.

The Storyteller-in-Residence should be a modern traveller with a discerning sense of style; one who seeks and respects art, design and the finer aspects of life. Social media knowledge is a must, as is a keen eye for photography and the ability to produce inspiring, emotive and engaging content.
