Job description

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.

The Customer Delight Team @ Bloom & Wild Group

Customer Delight is the customer service function for The Bloom & Wild Group. We look after customers for Bloom & Wild in the UK, Ireland, Germany and Austria, and bloomon in the Netherlands, Belgium and Germany. We support our customers across phone, email, WhatsApp, live chat and social platforms.

We are a team of around 30 people, plus an outsourced partner, and an AI chatbot handling a growing share of contacts. Our products are emotional. Someone is sending them because a friend has had bad news, or a parent has had a birthday, or a relationship needs mending. When something goes wrong with an order, it is rarely just about the gift specifically. That is the operation you would be supporting, and it is why the quality of what we do matters just as much as the volume.

Quality Assurance & Evaluation (~50% of time)

• Ticket Grading: Evaluate a target quantity of customer support interactions weekly/monthly across all channels to ensure alignment with our internal QA standards.

• Impact & Action: Translate grading data into actionable feedback, identifying patterns, skill gaps, and opportunities to improve CSAT, overall team QA scores and customer experience.

• Calibration Leadership: Lead and own QA calibration sessions with BPO Team Leaders (CDX) and internal CD team members to ensure consistent grading standards.

• Auto-QA Bot Auditing: Partner in reviewing, auditing, and validating the output of our new AI Auto-QA tools to ensure accuracy and legitimacy as the technology develops.

Live Customer Support & Engagement (~10% of time)

• Ticket Handling: Maintain a small, regular allocation of direct ticket time on Zendesk to stay grounded in customer needs, operational workflows, and real-time team processes.

• Peak Period Support: Role-model team standards by actively responding to customer inquiries during key business peak periods.

Content, Knowledge Management & Training (~40% of time)

• Knowledge Owner: Manage, edit, and optimise internal knowledge base (KB) documentation, training materials, and macros to ensure accurate and up-to-date guidance and resources.

• Training & Coaching: Audit existing learning resources, build new content, and deliver refresher training sessions for internal team members based on QA findings.

• Cross-Functional Collaboration: Partner with CDX to address training gaps. Over time, assist with onboarding training and coaching across BPO seasonal teams.

Targets & Expectations

• Grading Consistency: Consistently hit established weekly/monthly ticket grading quotas.
• Knowledge Accuracy: High accuracy, relevance, and regular maintenance of Knowledge Base content and macro libraries.
• Auto-QA Accuracy: Timely feedback loops and error auditing to assist in the successful adoption of automated QA tooling.

You’ll love this role if you…

• Language Skills: Fluent in Dutch or German, with full professional working proficiency in English.
• Target-Driven Mindset: Comfortable working toward and consistently achieving specific numerical targets (e.g. ticket volume, grading output), and familiarity with using G-Suite or similar software.
• Customer Delight Focus: Previous experience in a customer-facing role (e.g., Customer Support, CX, or QA) with some experience of standard tools like Zendesk.
• Communication & Coaching: Strong feedback skills with the ability to lead calibration sessions, facilitate workshops, and coach peers constructively.

Nice-to-Haves

• Experience working with or evaluating AI-driven support tools / Auto-QA platforms.
• Prior experience in training creation or content management for customer care teams.
• Experience working in an environment which has both internal and external teams.

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.

The good stuff
