London, United Kingdom Biscuiteers Full time

Biscuiteers is an award-winning luxury gifting brand, sometimes described as the ‘NET-A-PORTER of biscuits’. We launched in 2007 with the mission to offer a more unique, stylish and personalised gifting solution under the banner ‘why send flowers when you can send Biscuiteers?’ Every single biscuit is lovingly made from start to finish and each one is totally individual.

Our aim is to provide a seamless, joyful experience that delivers a little magic, one hand-iced biscuit at a time. We’ve grown enormously, particularly in the last 18 months. In 2020 alone, we hand-iced over 2.5 million biscuits and delivered them to customers all over the world.

As well as our eCommerce business, we have two biscuit boutiques, where we offer ‘School of Icing’ events, teaching our customers to ice like an expert, while they enjoy a cup of tea or coffee or even a glass of Prosecco. We also work with a wide range of corporate clients, creating bespoke and branded designs for every occasion.
In 2019, we opened the Ministry of Biscuits - a brand new purpose-built production space in Wimbledon, London. It is here where the biscuit magic happens. Now delivering to over 193,000 customers in 117 countries, our Production team will dispatch over 150,000 orders this year. We’re on the hunt for self-motivated and hardworking individuals who thrive in a creative and dynamic environment.
