Social Media & Partnerships Manager

Freddie’s Flowers was founded by Freddie Garland in October 2014 with one ambition: to change people’s relationship with flowers. We believe flowers aren’t only for grand occasions, but they make every day special, inspiring creativity and sparking joy.

Our starting point was our direct-to-consumer subscription model, helping us grow a loyal UK following. We launched in Germany in 2020, and then in 2021 we secured significant backing from The Craftory, a like-minded purpose-led global investment house, helping us expand, develop and grow. 2023 saw us start our gifting service – bringing the best of Freddie’s Flowers to everyone who needs it (even last minute!).

From the seed of an idea we continue to flourish; we’re now a B Corp organisation. And our founding mission remains unchanged – to change the world of flowers, and to change the world with flowers.

About the Role:

We’re looking for a creative and culturally plugged-in Social Media & Partnerships Manager to help grow Freddie’s Flowers social into the no.1 community for flower enthusiasts.

Reporting into the Brand Director and working closely with our in-house creative team, you’ll lead our organic social presence, shaping channel strategy, creating social-first content, and building an engaged community that genuinely loves flowers, creativity and as a result, the Freddie’s Flowers brand. Plus, you’ll play a key role in deciding which other likeminded brands and people we partner with to help spread the message further - whether it’s through events, content, or full-bloom collaborations.
