Are you passionate about flowers and eager to be part of a dynamic, customer-focused environment? Ampersand is hiring a part-time retail florist to join the team.

This is a retail-focused role where your floral design skills will shine, but it’s not a wedding or event designer position. It’s perfect for someone who thrives in a unique work environment that fluctuates from fast-paced to relaxed, imbues a friendly and positive demeanor, enjoys interacting with customers, understands the importance of sales, and is ready to contribute to daily operations and our business growth.

Role Responsibilities:

Design and create high-quality floral arrangements for retail sales, understand all retail components of Ampersand’s offerings, and become an income generator for the business.
Assist walk-in clients, manage phone and email inquiries, and handle invoicing.
Represent Ampersand during deliveries, installations, and client interactions.
Contribute to the overall organization of the business, including restocking, flower processing, inventory upkeep, plant maintenance, deliveries, vehicle maintenance, and any other duties that the business needs overall.
As needed, assist with event production in our warehouse, including prepping, cleaning, and resetting as needed.
Heavy lifting and standing for long periods are common in this physically demanding role.
Proficiency in computer systems is essential for managing orders and other business needs.

Position Details:

Part-time position available, approximately ~2 days a week, with weekend shifts expected, and additional shifts expected during event production weeks. Employees are eligible for tips.
Flexibility is key as shifts may fluctuate based on business needs, event production schedules, and coverage. Some weeks are expected to have increased hours to assist with business needs.
Previous flower shop experience is highly preferred, but not required. If you do have previous flower experience, please showcase a visual portfolio.

Requirements:

A valid driver's license is a bonus, along with comfortability with driving all company vehicles.
A year-long+ minimum commitment is required.

Ready to bring your creativity, passion, and good vibes to our team?

Please send your cover letter, resume, and portfolio to hello@ampersandsf.com. Looking to hire ASAP!
