Logistics & Supply ChainDemand Manager

Hi, we’re Bloom & Wild. We don’t just send flowers. We help our customers to care wildly. Caring wildly is celebrating the little things we all do for each other every day. Not just the big occasions. It’s being there for the highs. Stepping up for the lows.

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.

Founded in 2013, our mission back then was to make sending and receiving flowers the joy that it should be, by harnessing technology, brand and letterbox delivery. We announced £75 million Series D funding in 2021 and that same year acquired bloomon in The Netherlands and Bergamotte in France. Together, we’ve fulfilled and delivered over 20 million orders (and counting!), making us the largest direct to consumer flower business in Europe.

Now home to a family of 3 beautiful brands, we’re driven by our vision 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.

The role and ways of working

We’re looking for a Supply & Demand Manager to join our Forecasting team to lead on forecasting for our European markets. Reporting to our Head of bloomon ecommerce, you will deliver all European forecasts for our bloomon and B&W brands, covering product categories such as Flowers, Plants and non-floral gifting.

You’ll support in building and developing internal forecasting tools for all markets, enabling the business to scale its forecasting capabilities efficiently.

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.

Generate weekly and monthly forecasts by gathering and aligning inputs from multiple stakeholders across the business (e.g order forecasts from marketing, SKU mixes from trading teams and shipping set ups from logistics), reviewing supply and demand parameters.

Conduct analysis to accurately review volume requirements across all product categories, aiming to meet customer demand and maximise product availability.

Critically evaluate forecast outputs prior to sharing them with the wider team for review and decision-making.

Ensure timely and accurate inputs from internal stakeholders (marketing, trading, range, finance), enabling us to meet our supplier forecast demand deadlines

Support the Forecasting team in automating forecasting processes across all markets, leveraging AI to improve the speed and accuracy of forecast outputs.

Use data insights and business knowledge to develop and implement improved forecasting tools, templates, and processes.

Drive standardisation, scalability, and efficiency in forecasting practices to support local market needs and long-term business growth.
