Blink

London, UKUKRemote Hybrid

📍 Location: London (Old Street office, 3 days/week)

Globally, 80% of workers don’t have a desk or an office. These workers are the backbone of the global economy, the people we interact with every day in stores, on buses, in our hospitals, delivering our parcels, and maintaining our buildings. The current generation of workplace technology doesn’t fit their needs, Blink enables those people to be productive, informed, and engaged while on the move.

Weve built a fresh approach to an old problem. Our goal is to be the #1 choice for the mobile enterprise, to build the workplace super-app that brings together in one place the people and information that matter.

Were motivated, positive and social; were all different, but these traits tie us together. We work closely as a team and genuinely value each others opinions. Most of all, we try and learn as much as we can from one another, through knowledge sharing and healthy debate.

You’ll be working as part of our Product Support team to take our customer-centric ethos to the next level, with a specific focus on product queries and technical issue escalations.

  • Providing outstanding internal support, helping internal teams in resolving technical queries with the product, manage escalations and deliver scalable solutions to avoid re-occurrences.

Resolution and Escalation.

  • Upskilling in partnership with the rapid response engineering team to own more resolutions independently, leveraging the API and other tools provided to make updates in the back end systems.
  • Escalating requests to the relevant team, when necessary, ensuring appropriate priorisation, holding the internal stakeholders accountable for resolution and providing regular updates to the customer in accordance with our SLAs.
