• Understanding of floral design principles, including color, proportion, balance, texture, and composition.
• Experience using floral tools and mechanics, including floral foam, wire, tape, and bouquet construction.
• Strong attention to detail, time management, customer service, and teamwork.
• Ability to follow instructions and maintain quality during busy periods.
• Ability to perform the essential duties of the role, with reasonable accommodation where needed.

Preferred Qualifications

Scheduling

Availability for scheduled shop shifts, peak floral holidays, and occasional weekend events is important. Please include your regular availability and any scheduling restrictions with your application.

How to Apply

Submit your resume, availability, and photos or a portfolio of floral arrangements you personally designed. Describe your professional floral design experience and identify the types of arrangements you can complete independently.

For screening, add: Which floral designs can you create independently, and can you provide three photos of your own work? This helps distinguish experienced designers from applicants with a general interest in flowers.
