Head of Support

🚀 Build the function that powers care at scale.

🌍 London (in-office 3 days/ week)
🤝 Customer Success
💚 Reporting to our VP of Customer Success

We're not just closing the digital divide; we're reconnecting distributed organisations, enabling seamless communication, and re-engaging employees like never before. Blink, a mobile-first employee experience platform, puts everything employees need right in their hands. With teams in Boston, London, and Sydney, we're making waves worldwide, partnering with industry leaders like Domino's, JD Sports and McDonald's.

Support at Blink is not a back-office function. It is the heartbeat of customer trust, where friction is turned into advocacy and insights are unlocked that make us better at what we do. 

Our ambition is simple: every Blink customer should feel genuinely cared for, consistently and at scale. We are looking for a Head of Support to make this a reality.
