London, United Kingdom Blink - The Employee App Full time

Hybrid position: working 3 days a week from our London office (Monday, Wednesday & Thursday)

Blink’s super-app allows frontline workers to access everything they need and everyone they want in the palm of their hand. Our cutting-edge platform serves thousands of users across the globe, empowering enterprises to engage, motivate, and retain their most valuable assets—their people.
