Director of Client Relations

Blink UX is a trusted partner to some of the world’s most forward-thinking companies, helping them create digital products and experiences that people love.  We’re growing fast—and we’re looking for a high-performing, hunter-minded Director of Client Relations to help us accelerate that growth. Have you served as a Trusted Advisor to executive stakeholders at Fortune 500 Clients? Do you have deep connections with Big Tech organizations? A relationship builder? A Strategic Connector? This role is for someone who thrives on both serving as a trusted advisor to client executives, while evaluating their needs, guiding conversations about how Blink can address them, and helping shape and sell foundational engagements with new clients. You’ll serve as the face of Blink to new clients and, with our Mphasis colleagues, qualify business opportunities, contribute to crafting compelling narratives around our research and design services, and drive revenue through consultative selling. If your experience looks a little different from what we’ve identified and you think you can rock the role, we’d love to learn more about you. Please include a cover letter that explains why you are well-suited for the role - we read each and every one to ensure we don’t overlook any qualified individual. We are open to seeing mid to senior-level candidates for this role. ABOUT US Blink UX is a product design consulting firm.
