While our Flowers team looks after our beautiful bouquets, our Customer Delight team takes care of our wonderful customers. We work around the clock to support and delight our customers at every turn - ensuring no question goes unanswered, and always looking for ways to improve our customer experience.
We’re always keen to speak with anyone who is passionate about great customer service and is looking to develop their skills in this area. If you are a fluent Dutch and English speaker (German and Danish speakers also needed!), with a little bit of experience in a customer-focused role, we’d love to hear from you! We hire throughout the year and are able to offer hybrid, flexible (24-40 hour) working patterns across Monday - Sunday. We have offices in Amsterdam and London, and are also able to offer remote working in Germany.
More about us...
bloomon is turning the flower industry on its head – for the better. How? By disrupting the traditional supply chain! We skip the auction and wholesale, to shorten the journey for our flowers. And we harness technology, brand and innovation to deliver gifts and subscriptions that delight our customers across Europe.
We launched in Amsterdam in 2014, and in 2021 joined forces with Bloom & Wild, the UK's fastest growing ecommerce company (according to the Financial Times). Our group is backed by top tier investors and is now home to a family of 3 strong brands, Bloom & Wild, bloomon and Bergamotte. Together, we’ve delivered over 20 million orders (and counting!), making us the largest direct to consumer flower business in Europe.
Our vision is to create the destination for making life a little more thoughtful and beautiful. And we won't stop at flowers and plants. Starting with the Bloom & Wild brand, we're expanding our gifting offering to other categories like cakes, candles and cocktails. This is all part of our ambition to build Europe's #1 direct to consumer gifting destination.
We care wildly about people and our planet. Which is why we’re so proud to be a certified B Corp™ – committed to making long-term positive change for our community, and the world around us.
Creating a kind and caring workplace where everyone feels they belong is hugely important to us. We actively welcome all backgrounds, perspectives, ideas and experiences, and encourage everyone to share their opinions openly, so we can learn from our differences.

- Ready to work. You are on the phone this morning, making sure to help our customers and finding quick solutions that bring a smile to their faces.
- Mini-break. Time to enjoy some fresh air and sun on our roof terrace. You also take a look at this weeks flower collection while walking outside (our office is always filled with this weeks bouquets)

- End of your shift. You are waving goodbye to the evening crew who just arrived and will take care of the deliveries tonight.
✅ Sun, water, flower food…What you need to make us flourish:
- MBO/HBO/WO

🏡 Belonging at Bloom & Wild Group
We know that we learn through our differences, and building a diverse team has always been central to creating the best experience for our customers. We value all backgrounds, perspectives, ideas and experiences, and encourage everyone to share their opinions openly within our caring and inclusive team.
🧭 Our ways of working
We do things a little bit differently. From inventing letterbox flowers to founding The Thoughtful Marketing Movement. We’re big on collaboration, empathy, knowledge sharing and growth, and our values drive our priorities every day:
Lead change for good: we have the guts to try new things and step up to do what matters most
Think deeply, act swiftly: we make sure there’s thoughtful rationale behind our approach and always act swiftly to implement ideas
Care wildly: we pour care and creativity into everything we do and pay attention to the things that make a difference
Stay open, be curious: we’re open about what we’re doing and why, and we welcome challenges from each other
We really believe in the power of face-to-face connections - be that through a shared project, a learning and development opportunity, or an after work social - and trust our teams to make the right decisions (for them and us) about where and how they work each day. Our working patterns are flexible and vary across the business, depending on the type of work, need for collaboration, and personal and wellbeing circumstances.
