Overview:
The Pressed Bouquet Shop turns once-in-a-lifetime florals into lasting works of art. We accept bouquets from clients across the country and are in search of creative, engaging, and hardworking individuals to join our growing team.
A flower preservation specialist will have the opportunity to work with fresh florals, taking bouquets and other flower arrangements and preparing them to be pressed into a finished piece of art. A flower presser is responsible for creating the art medium that our design team then uses in the finished frame or resin display.
Flower preservation specialists must be capable of working independently and must be comfortable performing repetitive tasks. This position requires individuals to move quickly without losing sight of quality. Flower preservation specialists work on the warehouse side of our facility, where temperatures can get warm in the summer months and cool in the winter months. The ability to stand for 50%+ of each shift and lift 25lbs is required.
Paid training is provided, but after training flower preservation specialists are expected to achieve output goals for both efficiency and quality.
Hours are subject to increase/decrease with business needs and performance. This is a seasonal position, with the potential to extend.
