As the holiday season approaches, excitement is building at 1-800-FLOWERS.COM, Inc. We are preparing for our busiest and most festive time of the year by hiring nearly 8,000 seasonal associates nationwide across our family of brands to help deliver millions of smiles for our customers.
This holiday season, we’re also deepening our commitment to breaking down barriers to employment. In addition to welcoming new seasonal team members, we’re tapping into diverse talent pools through a continued collaboration with First Step Staffing, one of the largest nonprofit in the U.S. focused on helping individuals overcome poverty and homelessness through employment opportunities, and launching a new initiative with The Fuse Network, an Ohio-based nonprofit dedicated to supporting adults with disabilities.
This August, 1-800-FLOWERS.COM Inc. welcomed the first group of associates from The Fuse Network as part of a training program designed to prepare adults with disabilities for meaningful employment. Together, 1-800-Flowers.com and The Fuse Network are creating opportunities that empower individuals to build relationships, gain financial independence, and reduce reliance on paid support systems.
“As a company, we are committed to helping our consumers build more and better relationships for this holiday season and beyond. Our seasonal associates are key to providing our consumers a best-in-class experience,” said Tom Hartnett, President, 1-800-FLOWERS.COM, Inc. “This season, we are also thrilled to partner with organizations like The Fuse Network and First Step Staffing, in addition to our work with Smile Farms®, to continue to provide meaningful job opportunities for adults with disabilities.”
As they prepare to spread joy and deliver smiles this festive season, brands such as Harry & David®, PersonalizationMall.com®, and Cheryl’s Cookies® are seeking hardworking and dependable individuals to join our team. Most roles are available in Illinois, Ohio, and Oregon, with additional remote contact center positions also offered.
In addition to seasonal roles, year-round positions are available across the company’s family of brands, and seasonal associates may be considered for permanent roles once the holiday season ends.
