Customer Happiness & Moderation Admin Assistant (10 Month FTC)

Join the rebellion against bland.

We’re on a mission to rid the world of generic sentiment.

To make it more thortful. One brilliantly specific card at a time.

Rulebook? Shmulebook.

We’re not looking for followers.

We’re looking for smart, opinionated, high-performing humans who challenge the status quo. Kindly.

People who:

• Back themselves.
• Push ideas further.
• Take smart risks (not reckless ones).
• Have strong opinions, lightly held.
• And are, crucially, good to work with. (No brilliant jerks. Life’s too short.)

We’re transforming a category. That takes ambition, focus and character.

If you want to hide in the middle, we’re not your people.

If you want to help shape what comes next, pull up a chair.

Who we are

We’re thortful, an online greetings card marketplace powered by 6,000+ independent creators.

With 85,000+ brilliantly original cards (and some properly good gifts), we help people find that “so us” connection, from milestone birthdays to “congrats on the boob job” moments.

We’re not just another disruptor (ugh).

We actually mean it.

• We back real humans – Every sale puts real money into the pockets of independent creators.
• Born in Sheffield – Our print-on-demand model means no warehouses full of waste. Every card, like Sean Bean, is born in Sheffield.
• Recyclable as standard – 100% recyclable. Even though they’re good enough to frame.
• Vegan inks – Because David Attenborough raised us better than that.
• Carbon-conscious – Through our sustainability partner Ecologi, we’ve funded 4,450 trees and avoided 630.04 tonnes of CO₂e. We also use lower-carbon delivery partners, including DPD and Royal Mail.

We care about people.

We care about purpose.

We care about proper lovely bits of folded paper.

Who we’re looking for

The challengers.

The smart risk‑takers.

The go‑getters who know progress beats perfection.

The ones who’d rather ask “why not?” than “are we allowed?”

Who speak up with honesty, clarity and kindness.

Who do what they say they’re going to do.

Brave and thoughtful.

Ambitious but decent.

Fearlessly original. Endlessly curious.

Collaborative. Low ego. High standards.

If you’re tired of being a cog in a faceless machine and want to actually make a dent, we should talk.

Let’s make the world more thortful.
