British company is using this sexualised post to advertise for a new secretary
This post was used to advertise for a new secretary

An ad for a secretary position has come under fire as being ‘sexist, derogatory, inappropriate and lazy".

The poster was sent out by a British recruiting firm ICS and featured a woman in stockings and short skirt bending down.

Above the image was the tag line: ‘Secretary required in Mayfair. Stockings optional! £35k. Ready to assume [sic] the position?"

Dozens complained about the post, saying: ‘Someone"s clearly forgotten to tell @ICSRecruitment it is 2015′

While another added: ‘Are you SERIOUS with this advert?!! Horrendously ill-judged".

The post was uploaded onto ICS Recruitment"s LinkIn page, Instagram page and Twitter page, but has since been deleted.

Responding to criticism of the post ICS wrote on their Twitter page: ‘It"s a cult film called the Secretary precursor to 50 Shades."
