Blink is a fast-growing startup, founded here in London, and is focused on creating software for companies with a large ‘frontline’ workforce. A frontline worker is essentially one without a desk, so Blink’s end users can be quite diverse, from tree surgeons to bus drivers or from hospital staff to production line workers. Like employees at all companies, these workers need to manage payroll, book shifts, and communicate with their coworkers. Solutions exist to do all this for normal desk workers, but frontline workers are rarely behind a computer and struggle with these tasks using conventional software. Sean realised this problem several years ago and set about building Blink. Now the company has gathered over £20 million in funding and is expanding quickly into international markets.
