Senior Operations Performance and Analytics Manager

About Bloom & Wild Group

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.

🛠️ Operations Team @ Bloom & Wild Group

Our Operations team at Bloom & Wild and bloomon is at the heart of how we deliver for our customers every day, from sourcing, procurement and fulfilment to logistics and supply chain management. The team ensures we balance operational excellence, innovation, and customer satisfaction across seven markets and multiple fulfilment locations. Our key enablers for every element of our operations are data and technology so there is close collaboration with those teams. Even for those processes where we outsource the execution, we use data to continually feedback to our partners and optimise and innovate our processes and products.

✅ You’ll love this role if you…

• Are a confident communicator with excellent stakeholder management skills
• Are effective in switching between contexts and different stakeholder groups
• Can juggle multiple priorities while keeping a clear sense of what’s important

Nice to have:

• Exposure to working with senior leadership and a wide range of stakeholders
• Experience with project management tools and Google Workspace.
• Curiosity for experimenting with new tools, systems and specifically AI

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.

🧭 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.
