Job description

Customer Delight Team @ Bloom & Wild Group

With the same care we are watering our flowers and arranging our beautiful bouquets, we are looking after our customers and helping them out.

• Do you love to be in contact with people, take problems seriously, and strive for solutions?
• Do you have a friendly personality and like to make people happy?
• Are you proactive and like to work in a dynamic environment?

Join our Customer Delight Team as a Customer Delight Associate and bring joy to customers' days with every interaction!

In this role, you'll focus on supporting both our bloomon and Bloom & Wild brands (can be London or Amsterdam based), delivering exceptional service that leaves a lasting impression. As a part of the German Customer Delight team, handle requests from German‑speaking customers, requiring flexibility and adaptability to meet diverse needs. You will be responsible for our German customers via email, WhatsApp, live chat and phone. From time to time we will also ask you to jump into our Dutch email queue (we have a great translation tool) and all English queues.

It is essential that you can think in a solution‑oriented way and are able to work independently. For this position, it is also a must that you are empathetic and can put yourself in our customers' shoes. You will carry out varied work and be given a lot of responsibility straight away. Being organised, proactive and ready to hit the ground running will be essential to success in the role.

We are a hybrid team working across the UK, Netherlands and Germany and take time to regularly connect remotely and in person.

Please note that this role requires fluent Dutch language skills.

What you'll be doing:

• A typical day sees you actively engaging with customers through various channels in Zendesk, working to resolve their issues, communicating with colleagues on Slack for support, and completing associated admin duties.
• You’ll also spend part of your week attending company and team meetings, sharing feedback with colleagues, and spending time with your manager evaluating your performance and working on growth opportunities within your role.
• Working hours for this role will be with shifts between 09:00 and 22:30 Monday‑Sunday and may change when required to match the business needs. This also includes bank holidays. Flexibility is required for this role.
• We expect you to work at least one evening shift per week (delivery nights are Wednesday - Friday) and in a pattern across weekends too.

You’ll love this role if you…

• Strong verbal communication and writing skills in Dutch (fluent) as well as English as you will work to support customers in both languages
• A background in a customer service‑oriented position is a plus.
• Comfortable working towards quality and productivity targets
• A solution‑oriented and friendly attitude as well as a kind nature.
• Proactive and definite ‘can do’ attitude
• Available part‑time or full‑time (24 hours +).
• Please note that this role is hybrid - based in Amsterdam
• These are some of the skills and experience we think will enable success in this role, but please don’t worry if you are missing some of these. We’re committed to building a team made up of different strengths, skills and experiences, so if you’re excited about our values, passionate about what you do and would like to join us in doing things more thoughtfully, we’d love to hear from you.

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.

Work that works for you

• Work Abroad for up to 30 days each year
• Share in our success with a choice to take equity options from day 1
• 1 day per year to volunteer on a project that’s close to your heart
• We’ll support your commute to our office and site locations. Depending on your journey to work, this may include a Swapfiets, an NS business card or expense reimbursement

Time off

• 24 vacation days and an option to buy an extra 5 each year
• Happiness days (1 extra day each quarter for your personal ‘me time’)
• 1 celebration day per year, to celebrate a holiday that’s important to you
• Flexible bank holidays - trade a bank holiday for another day that fits your beliefs, values and celebration calendar

Health and wellbeing

• Mental health support through Open Up, including access to online therapy sessions
• Allies and champions groups
• Mental Health First Aiders and awareness training for our managers
• In person and virtual yoga every week
• Our office kitchen is stocked with healthy drinks and snacks to keep you going
• Workplace pension contributions

Growth & Development

• A flexible training framework for every stage of your career development through our Bloom & Learn programme
• Internal & external Speaker Sessions on a variety of different inspirational topics.

Moments that matter

• We love having lunch together! We offer daily fresh and healthy lunch options at our locations in Amsterdam and Amstelveen,
• A BBQ-worthy rooftop terrace (Amsterdam HQ)
• Social & wellbeing monthly calendar
• We love to celebrate birthdays, anniversaries and other important milestones!
• Summer and End of Year events, team lunches and post-peak celebrations
• Irresistible discounts on our products, blooms & subscriptions!

Getting hired

We know that job searching can be daunting, and we want to do everything we can to ensure that your experience with us is a good one. Interviewing is a 2‑way process, and we’re keen to answer all of the questions you have, so that you can be sure (and excited!) that we’re the right move for you.

We believe in leading change for good, so do let us know if there’s anything we can do to support your application process. Also, if you have any feedback, please help us to improve our candidate experience by sharing (anonymously) here.
